Winter Owl

This card is for Paper Craft Planet's second day of their 12 Days of Christmas contest and the third sketch challenge. Hey! You can't blame a girl for trying to win more stamps, can you, LOL??? I'm still excited about winning those Kitchen Sink stamps for day one!

Anyway, my base card is Whisper White, then a layer of Almost Artichoke, then a layer of Baja Breeze. I sponged the two top layers with Almost Artichoke before adhering to the card base. The focal image is stamped on Whisper White with Baja Breeze and a stamp from Inkadinkado's Winter Birds set. I highlighted the snowflakes and swirls with my gold Sakura glitter pen and cut/embossed it with a small oval nestabilities die. Then it was layered on Baja Breeze cut/embossed with a small scalloped oval die. The DP layer under the focal image is Basic Grey's Dasher collection and is called Snowbank and is sponged with Almost Artichoke, too. Snowflake brads are from K & Company. The sentiment is stamped on Whisper White with Baja Breeze with a sentiment from Verve's Ornamental Christmas set. It was then cut/embossed with a Nestabilities ribbon slider die and attached with a gold ribbon. Thanks for stopping by!
