You Are So Wise
Hi everyone! I hope you all had a very nice Thanksgiving!! We had a huge, yummy feast…way too much food, but it was OH-SO good!!
I’m not quite back to normal (as in I still have no voice whatsoever and this annoying asthma-like cough sometimes) but I’m definately feeling better. Thanks again for all the well wishes!!!
I’ve had this cute little Sassafras Lass Oliver & Friends clear stamp set lying around waiting to be inked and last night I finally had a chance to play. You’ll be seeing more of these for sure! I love them!
For this one I was able to stamp the branch first, then the little owl. (Some owls in the set will need to be stamped first then masked before stamping the branch.) I colored the branch and flowers with Copics, stamped the owl in Chocolate Chip and did a bit of outlining with a Copic gray marker.
The little “brads” in the corner are self-adhesive. I must get more the next time I’m at my non-so-local stamp store. They’re very cool!
Patterned paper is from the Piggy Tales “Peter, Peter, Pumpkin Eater” Collection available from All That Scraps. I just love that entire line! The gold-ish paper is Avana Exclusive Prism, my first time using Prism paper and I’m making a mental note to get more. It has a great texture, nice heavy weight and incredible color.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
