Everything Will Be Owl Right
Hello crafters! I started today's card by going through my stack of premade background papers. I found this one that was done with Midnight Blue and Emerald Green Pixie Powders. I used the Slimline Stars Background and cut it into the pixied card. I added a piece of white card that had a sticky adhesive sheet added to it. I peeled the backing paper off and attached the star background, then filled in the exposed adhesive with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz. I added a white frame using the Slimline Stitched Rectangle Frames. I cut the moon from the Moonlit Owl die set and tucked it into the top corner of the framed area. I cut the Owl from the Wise Old Owl set in tan card. I inked through the die before removing it using Gathered Twigs distress ink. I added a white backing to the owl, then added him with mounting foam to the corner of the frame. I cut the Everything Will Be Owlright sentiment twice out of white card. I stacked them, then glued it to the top of the frame. I cut the sentiment again but this time I used a bit of leftover pixied card. I nipped away the word "Everything" and glued it on top of the white die cuts. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 4 3/4" x 9" in size. All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, what a beautiful sample, love the midnight blue colours you have made with the pixie powders for the starts cut out, a wonderful backdrop for any card, and of course the Owl finishes it off sitting on the frames.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June smith xxx
