Owl thank you cards

I rarely buy wood mounted stamps, but I found this darling new release from Hero Arts after noticing a 40% off sign at Michael's. I really can not resist owls, and I needed to make some thank you cards. Here is the result:

This stamp lends itself easily to peicing. I stamped the image on 3 different K&Co papers. The news print owl was cut away from the paper and layered over the green with pop dots for added dimension. The Green was cut away from the border of the stamp and layered over the tan/dot paper. The tan/dot mat was cut from the Cricut cartridge, A Child's Year. All in all a very different effect over just stamping the image.

Thanks for looking!

  1. I love your cards and your mini books, Sarah! I've never made a mini book, yet... and I am not a card maker as of yet. Be Blessed!

  3. Thanks! I really need to get some more projects posted, but early morning Seminary and half a dozen kids keep interfering. That and my desk is a horrible craft explosion of a mess ;)
