I've had a lot of fun this afternoon making cards for a couple of challenges. All of them use the same images. The first is for the Embellish Owls Color Challenge.
I recently purchased a fun clear set of Hero Arts stamps I'd been looking at for several months. A 50% off coupon sealed the deal. One of my favorite images is this cute little owl.
Here's a detail shot that emphasizes the glitter on the owl.
Stamps (Hero Arts, Memory Box), Cardstock (Papertrey Ink), gems (Amuse Creative Candy), twine (unknown), button (Papertrey Ink), Copic markers and Spica glitter markers.
Here are a couple more cards using the same images but different color combinations. On the first, I stamped the branch on the back of a coffee wrap and then cut it out. The leaves were stamped, cut out, and attached to the branch.
And finally the simplest of the three:
swoon. I love owls so very much. These cards are so lovely!

beautiful and great example of how to get very different looks from the same basic concept
