Bun in the Oven card

Hello everyone,

I'm back today to share an owl card but if you are here for the Holly Jolly Christmas Challenge Post today, please scroll down.




I've had these owl stamps from Marianne Designs for ages and they had never seen ink so when I saw that the challenge over at

                                  
 ************************************************************       
Make My Monday                   


this week was owls, I just had to break them out and have a play. The big owl tummies called for paper piecing and reminded me of big pregnant tums, so I pulled out some sentiments from the Avery Elle Plus One set which were perfect for this idea. I cut the panel with an edger die for a little added interest without taking away from the CAS style of the card, and I inked around the edge with white ink to soften it.

I would like to play along with the challenge over at 

Addicted to Stamps and More!


which this week is CAS, and I'd also like to enter the

Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog


which this time is the letter M. As my card has Mummy owls on it, I hope it qualifies.

Finally, I'd like to enter the fairytale challenge - owls

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you are enjoying your week.

Hugs
