A "Wise" Card...
Friday, September 3, 2010
Hey there! I finally have a minute to post this card. It's been done for a few hours now and I'm just now getting time to write this up. I am so happy it's Friday and I can't wait to get this long weekend started.
The idea of this card was sparked when I was browsing through SCS and saw that the Free 4 All challenge for today was to use birds on your card. I colored my owl with markers and tied a piece of burlap string by his feet to make it look like he's sitting a branch, or nest, or something.
Have you all noticed the new Papertrey Ink sets I've been using lately? No, I didn't go on a shopping spree and break all my Frugal Friday rules. My friend Elisabeth from Pennsylvania let me borrow a whole stack of her PTI stamps. Her daughter and my daughter are pen pals and our love paper crafting immediately sparked a connection between us. Sadly, I'll be sending her stamps back soon, but it was so much fun while it lasted!!!
I hope you all have a wonderful holiday weekend!!!

What a cute card. The little piece of burlap glued on for a "branch" is a great idea. And I love that adorable little sentiment.
