Some new rubber on the table from my SSS win. :) It's Friday night and I feel alright! So quickly playing to enter the latest Simon Says Stamp challenge, we've got your number. I used the new IndigoBlu numbers background stamp - swoon - and a PaperArtsy tiny numbers stamp for my background.
The background was made with a mix of Distress Oxides on kraft. A little faux stitching around the edge. The foreground panel was regular DI.
I thought this Carabelle Studios own was THE coolest. I am a big owl lover, but don't like to tell people because they think I love all owls. I don't. Just way cool ones like this or very retro/vintage owls. Anyway, I framed him by cutting out a Seth Apter die around his face, and then inking it with DOX. I added a few cogs to fill the empty space. I thought this sentiment would be fun for a birthday and stamped it with $1 tiny alphas from Michaels. It feels so good to get messy after some CAS work. LOL! I'm so all over the place - I know... Anyway, I hope you like this and are inspired to play along. Happy weekend!

I'm not sure about men but I would be more than happy to receive a card like this Autumn it's a beaut. Love how all the colours are similar in tone & shade.. That Owl really does have a wise stare... Maybe he knows the *real* age :)) Have a sweet weekend.. Hugs Tracey xx
This is quite handsome! It is the first time I heard the ink called DOX, and I love it! I might have to jump onboard with that one!

I do enjoy owls as well. Plus when I worked with wildlife we always had 3-4 baby owls a year to play with. And although their talons are huge, I don't let it deter me. Haha! Hugz to you muffin!
