And, let's move along right to my creation...
I did something on this card that is something that I seldom do...and that is to ink all of the edges in colored ink other than brown! LOL I found it too bright, so I did land up inking a little brown over the colored hues just to tone them down a little!
I also finished the inside of the card on this creation...
(my apologies that this photo isn't the greatest!)
..and here's a closer look at the owl in flight and sentiments...
This collection has so much potential.
So many wonderful sentiments to couple with adorable owl images! A collection to use for so many different kind of occasions!
That's all for me today!
