Blinky Owl Card Kit

Here is the fourth Card Kit I've designed that will be available in the One Crazy Stamper booth at Scrapfest in Kitchener, Ontario - April 7th & 8th (coming soon! - OCS has a fabulous booth, and two different demos going on!).  This card is a great as a birthday card... but I think if you changed up the sentiment, it could double as a baby card?  Here is Blinky Owl SS014 and Another Year Wiser FF010 both from High Hopes:

 Card Kits come with the two stamps shown here, plus all of the cut pieces, card bases and envelopes to make four identical cards.  A full colour instruction sheet is included with the card, along with Copic marker suggestions and all of the cutting measurements for you to make more cards.  Kits are $22 - there are a limited number available, and *if* there are any leftover after Scrapfest, you'll see them in the OCS store.

Happy stamping!

Inspired By All The Little Things #48

Welcome to another week of Inspired By All The Little Things!  I am the challenge hostess this week, and have chosen a dreamy night sky photo as our inspiration.  I had a great time trying a new combo of distress inks to give me a colourful sky, and then I used my white Sharpie fine point marker to add my stars.  I am using High Hopes Rubber Stamps on today's card - here is Blinky Owl, who I masked and then stamped the Tree Stump behind him:

The sky is a little darker/more navy-ish in real life, giving it a night sky look.  *I have invited the talented Leanne Elliott as my Guest Designer this week, so head on over to the blog to see what she & our talented Design Team have come up with.  Here is our inspiration photo:

The last two Owls

*This is my 1000th blog post - wow!!

Here are the final two owl cards that I made with the recent High Hopes stamps release (you can find them here on the One Crazy Stamper website).  These are two of my favourite cards that I've made over the last while!  Here is Blinky Owl:

 The stump in this one, and the branch in the card below are two of the accessories available with these little owls, as are the sentiments.  I knew that with Blinky's eyes being closed, that I wanted it to be a nightime scene, and I dug through my paper stash to find this silver starry background paper that I've had kicking around for probably more than ten years!!  And here is Happy Owl:

I tried painting a watercolour sky, and didn't like the results, so instead I made my own cloud template and sponged some pale blue ink over it - it's a little brighter in person.  I fussy cut around both the branch and the owl, and popped him & the sentiment up for a little dimension.  So head over to the OCS website to check out the entire release, and if you use SVG files, they're available for the entire collection!
