You're a HOOT!

Well I did get time to play with one of my new cartridges. I used Happily Ever After. I like that the characters have these "icon" features. You can cut a squirrel, a bird, an owl, etc., just miscellaneous things that go along with the Disney Princess movies.

I cut this little owl that was an icon feature for one of the Sleeping Beauties on the cartridge. Isn't he cute? It was three cuts. The shadown, the base, and the overlay. Better yet, I got out Basic Grey Blush paper, and I actually used some, so this is one fashionable owl!! The flowers are Prima Sprites with chalk on the ends. The brad is a new Around The Block brad that I got from QVC. The "You're a" are ScrapWorks letter rubons. The "HOOT!" was cut with my Khaki QuicKutz letters. I ticket punched the card front, added some Stickles to the corners, and added pink dotted shear ribbon around it. I'm thrilled with the way this card turned out. I love this little owl!

Come back tomorrow to see what else I made. It was tedious, but the result is pretty great! Thanks for stopping by!

Hi Carol!
Thanks so much for your messages! Happy new (not quite so new now) year!! I keep meaning to get blogging again a bit, but it never quite happens - been working on the house, and everyone has been taking it in turns to be ILL since beginning of Nov. - very boring!
I ordered a Bind-it-all yesterday though, and some other goodies, so I'll make some time for crafting soon! Your card and everything else you've been up to are great! Sorry for not commenting on everything!
Hope you and the family are well,
Love,
Helen
