For my project today I wanted to add a little fun to the week.
I fell in love with these little owls right when they were released.
I find these guys very versatile.
I've used them for birthdays, thinking of you and Valentine's day cards.
For my first card I wanted to use my story book die.
I've had it for about 6 months and have not used it.
We won't discuss the other things I have stashed away. LOL
I was going to just use the owls but then
I went digging into my grab bag of images
and found the little package, the birthday hat and the sentiment.
I knew they would be fun to use with this star paper.
I added a little black to the stitched outline just to give a some separation
from the images and the paper

I have also been trying to use up scraps from previous projects.
It always seems to be an overwhelming job.
I was able to find a few items to use on my second card.
The Polaroid frame was hiding in that pile.
Hope you enjoyed my projects today.
I'll be back tomorrow with more projects.
Until then.....

Owl I have to say is too cute!
ReplyDeleteJust love your cards !! Wish I could sew on a card as good as you do !!
ReplyDeleteThe owl is so cute and I love the stitching around the first card along with his party hat. I did a challenge last month where I used only things that I hadn't used in over a year. It is amazing what you find that you had forgotten about.
ReplyDeleteSo stinkin cute! I forgot about this owl stamp set, and now I need to ink it up. Thanks for sharing your card with us!
ReplyDeleteVery cute, love the owls
ReplyDeleteI thought I was done with cute stamps until I had to make some birthday cards for little boys. These are adorable for that and for the "Just Because" cards that I like to make as surprises. I this set and the way you used it. Well done!
ReplyDeleteLove these cute little owls and the colorful paper! Beautiful cards. Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are fun, Teresa. I really like the layout of the first one.
ReplyDeleteSuch fun cards.
ReplyDeleteAwesome cards! I'm a birdie lover myself, so I have a lot of the owls & birds. I have a small plastic container that I throw all my scraps in ... I need to open it & use them ... I can't fit anymore inside! lol
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to a different card, thanks for the insperation.
ReplyDeleteThe owls are so cute and your patterned paper goes so well with them; you have made 2 very fun cards! I am always trying to find good ways to use up my scraps too! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAdorable cards. You did a good job using up your scraps. The lil owl is so cute. Perfect match with the colors.
ReplyDeleteThese are so adorable! I love the layout of the first card!
ReplyDeleteSo cute. The stitched die adds so much to your adorable card. I also like your choice of papers!!
ReplyDeleteI actually have this set-now it's time to dig it out and use. Thank you for the fun-gave me a much needed smile.
ReplyDeleteGreat cards Teresa! So fun! Love the patterns!
ReplyDeleteThat owl is so sweet...super cute cards
ReplyDeleteOk... this stamp set is goin' on the wish list! Super cute!
ReplyDeleteI love your use of the Polaroid frame. I'm not so creative to have come up with such a good idea. I probably would have chucked it. :( The owl with the Birthday hat is adorable. Awesome job!
ReplyDeleteFun card! The owls are a hoot!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun card. I love the little owl.
ReplyDeleteso stinkin cute! I have these papers and now I want to use them...
ReplyDeleteSuper cute cards. I like all of them.
ReplyDeleteI just bought that Pretty Pink Posh storybook die...so you've given me another great layout for it. Love these little owls.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute....love the double stitching...
ReplyDeletethese cards are so cute! I love the creative way that you used several images on the same card! I am definitely going to try that! The owls are adorable! I know what you mean about using up scraps from other projects! The second card was cute as well. Loved the polaroid frame!
ReplyDeleteI like the color combination on the second card. Cute!
ReplyDeleteAdorable Cards!
ReplyDeleteHappy cards!
ReplyDeleteSuch cuteness!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about scraps. I have boxes of homemade elements that didn't work for the original project - it's so hard to use more than 1 or 2 on a new project!! Aaahhh! the madness!! This was a home run though!! I LOVE the polaroid birdie :) OMG! I think it would be cute in a frame next to a mirror! LOVE! Congrats on your GIU Week!! It has been super <3
ReplyDeleteadorable cards!!
