I've based the layout on our sketch at Waltzingmouse Fanatics - WMSFC#22, I've used the gorgeous colours from The Card Concept - CC#14 and I've added twine which is what the DT at Serendipity - SSCB#33 want us to do. The card is in the clean and layered style. I got this wonderful owl die last year and haven't used it nearly enough. I made the owl by cutting out the backing layer and the outline in black card. I adhered the outline layer to the background layer and started filling in the die cut areas with red, teal and white card - it take a while, but is so worth it. I stamped the large wood grain image on white card, cut out the funky circle and adhered that directly to the card base. I stamped the chevrons a few times and then cut them to size and added twine up the centre of each section. I adhered the owl and chevrons with dimensional tape. I finished the front of the card with a simple sentiment which goes with the owl. This card could be a simple get well card, or be sent to a friend who is simply feeling a bit low. On the inside I cut a mat layer in black and on the white panel I added a few feathers at the side, leaving a large space for a message.
We're all off out to a photo shoot today - this time featuring a Harley Davidson motor bike, a model and lace! Should be lots of fun. See you soon.
