LSC#53 Stamp a Scene

Hi!!  I'm returning today on the blog to share with you my card for the latest Lawnscaping Challenge.  This one was really fun!!  Well - they all are :)  I am always wanting to "think outside the box" on these challenges, and this one is no exception.








For this card - my inspiration was my mom.  She is the book reader in my family and she loves owls - so I thought this card would be fun to give her and submit for this challenge. It was a fairly simple card - the longest part with making it would be of course stamping out the custom sentiments.  I used some of the pattern paper from the Dewey Decimal 6x6 paper pad.  I stamped out my owl from "Critters in the Forest", and did some "altering" on his eyes to make them look like he is a surprised owl. Then, I stamped, cut out and colored my little bird from "A Birdie Told Me" set. The, I used "Harold's ABC's" for the custom sentiments " You're cool for reading books" - "Who Me"??

I know how much my mother LOVES her books, and I envy her for that.  I am more of a magazine girl! HA!

Thanks for stopping by my blog!!
