It’s World Animal Day! At Sparkle N Sprinkle we’re celebrating the animals in our lives, and the critters of this world by having a blog hop. Critters bring such joy, happiness and beauty to our world, and we’d like to recognize them for the contributions made to our hearts!
My card today is made using the Bird Swirl Stamp Set 432. I stamped my branch and owl using dye inks, and my sentiment using a pigment ink. The sentiment was then embossed with Copper EP. After coloring the branch and leaves, I added Starfire Glitter with Brushable Glue. I added a feather for some interest.
Today is my last post as a Sparkle N Sprinkle designer. I want to publicly say what a wonderful company SNS is, and how generous their hearts are. I have loved working with Margaret and Donna and the rest of the team for the past year. Thank you for a delightful time!

ReplyDeleteLove the cute owl and especially the way you colored the branch he is sitting on!
ReplyDeleteLove the owl and the copper embossing on the sentiment, very pretty! Sorry I won't get to work with you though.
ReplyDeleteLovely. It is interesting to see just two corners rounded. That gives a completely new look.
ReplyDeleteLove your choice of colors -- the blue and copper are gorgeous together.
ReplyDeleteYour owl is so sweet, thanks for sharing such a cute card!
ReplyDeleteI especially like the embossing folder background. The shape of the rectangle the owl is resting on is intriguing. I've never tried just rounding two of the corners

Thanks for sharing your little Owl with us. I love owls, but I have a hard time finding how to design a setting. Thanks for the idea.

ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty card and great colors!
ReplyDeleteGreat card! Love the colors and the details, especially the feather!
ReplyDeleteGreat card (and sorry to see you go). I love the colors and the images, but the pop is the feather. What is a bird without feathers.
ReplyDeleteI like the texture on your card.
ReplyDeleteThe starlight glitter blends nicely with the pumpkin CS. The feather adds just the right dimension for a finishing touch.
ReplyDeleteJanet
Feathers are so "in" today. You got my mind working on more ideas using feathers!
ReplyDeleteJulie T
I have this set, Judy, and I keep overlooking the owl. Your card inspires me to use it. How perfect for an October fall card! The feather is perfect and I'm going to definitely use that idea!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful colors, Judy, and I love the cute owl image....the feather is such an awesome detail!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely card Judy!
