Hey there! I'm back for the second day in a row! Are you surprised? I hope you aren't "too" surprised, as I plan to be posting here much more often than I have the past few months. It all started with something going haywire with Typepad, the blog host I use, that wouldn't allow photos to upload. It took awhile for me to discover that it wasn't my laptop's fault, nor our home internet, but an actual Typepad problem. About the time that finally was resolved, (which Typepad did not notify their customers when it was fixed, I just happened to check one day after growing tired of trying to upload photos every day with no success) the holiday chaos was beginning. Then I came down with Influenza A and was down on the couch for almost a week. I recovered just in time for my youngest son's college graduation (magna cum laude in English Literature) and then the final push to finish Christmas.
I did get a couple of projects completed for a swap before I went down on the couch, the Dainty Delight Calendar Easel card I shared with you yesterday and today's card created with the new Sale-a-bration set, Adorable Owls!
I used a simple z-fold for my card base, then used strips of Happy Forest Friends Designer Paper for the background. After stamping the owl with Soft Suede ink, I colored with the Stampin' Blends listed below and then punched with the Decorative Circle Punch. The bow is tied with the Pumpkin Pie twine found in the Three Twine Combo pack from the January/April 2023 Mini catalog page 59.
I finished off the inside with another strip of the Happy Forest Friends Designer paper and a sentiment from another $50 freebie Sale-a-bration set, Sending Support.
