My Aunt Gave Me a

owl purse so I thought it would only be fitting to give her an owl card. I loved this color combination from this DigiKit called Spring Fling by Shelley Castillo available at Two Peas. 

Gratitude

I embossed the owl with black embossing powder and  painted the him with Ranger distress inks ( Faded Jeans and Mustard Seed). After  the ink dried I added some white pen detail. The heart with the bow is inspired by Jennifer McGuire. We are expecting 12 – 24″ of snow tomorrow ….I hope you are getting some sunshine. Have a great day! Hugs, Kathy

    Just a perfect card Kathy. Hope the snow isn’t too bad… I’m basking in humid heat right at this very moment at 7.45pm – still very warm and sticky. Thanks for all your lovely comments on my blog – most appreciated. If you don’t hear from me for a week or so don’t worry – I’m out of internet range!!!
