Arthur the Owl

 Good Morning....Hope you are all well....as we are here....

Today's Card is for a Friends Daughter who asked her Mum for a Owl for her birthday...she wanted a stuffed one....yuk!....not my thing as I like owls to be a live....Her Mum said no ....thank goodness.....so I made her a card to send to her....

The owl die is from Sizzix  colorize called Arthur by Tim Holtz.....he looks very grumpy to me!....16 dies...and each set of die has which colour to use on the back....I cut mine from bits of card from the bit box...I also cut his tail so it could look more like he is sitting on the  branch....The background i used a embossing folder from Tonic....which I coloured with some chalks.......green card from Papermill...

Sizzix Poinsettia

 Good Morning....Made it! I don't know about you but its been too hot to craft.....but the rain over the last few days have cool my little craft room down....

Today's day is one I have been batch making.....Sizzix has a sale on....  A few fell in to my basket....I brought this one  and other one for a web friends birthday.....

I made a 6x6 card for the base then cut a square to fit it and cut the die.....white linen and red card  from Papermill....then I took some watercolor card and some Distress Inks for the background....the red frame is Spellbinders...then added some Nuvo Glitter Drops...
