Winter Owl - LSC#50 and Pinspired Challenge#2

Hello lovlies!  I thought I would get crafty this Sunday.  It is a rainy day in Southern Missouri, and what a better way to spend it than getting inky.  After all, like I mentioned in yesterday's post - I am trying to get back in the crafty groove again!!  So - today I am here to share with you my card that I am entering into the latest Lawnscaping Challenge, and also entering the next Pinspired Challenge.

I kept it fairly simple. For some reason, I always think I have to make something spectacular to get noticed in these challenges - which don't get me wrong - I like most of the time, because it stretches my creativity, but I also have to keep in mind that sometimes simple is just as good!!!  It is just the way I am!!  

I used some of the pattern papers from this 6x6 paper pad.  I stamped out my image from Lawn Fawn's Winter Owl stamp set.  This is the first time that I've inked up this cutie!!  I used this ink, and then I did some Copic coloring.  I paper-pieced the scarf of the owl using some scraps I had in my stash.  I wanted to customize my sentiment to say - "Baby, it's cold OWLside".  I used both Sally's and Harold's ABC's.

To finish the card off, I wanted to add some Stampin' Up Sweater Trim.  This trim is so soft!  I love it.

Where ever you are - I hope it is not too cold and if it is warm - feel lucky!!  So far, the winter here hasn't been as bad as it has been in the past, which is good - I am not a winter person!!!

See You Soon!
