Sunday Inspiration

Hi there!  I'm a little late posting my Sunday card, but my weekend got a little busier than I expected (in a good way)!  This week, I used the Best of Friends image on another Halloween card.  I thought the spider tied in with the Halloween theme, so instead of using a "happy h-OWL-oween" sentiment which would draw attention away from the spider, I used a stamp by Clear & Simple Stamps that seemed appropriate for these two guys.  I colored my backyard friends with some Copics and used papers by Target to jazz them up.  To finish off the card, I stuck on some purple buttons and called it a day.  I'm just about finished with my Halloween cards, how about you??  :)  Thanks so much for stopping by friends, hope you all had a great weekend!

What a Hoot!

I created a green card this week.  I couldn't resist playing a bit with polka dots and this cute owl image was so fun to use as the main image!  More details can be found on my blog.

Have a Happy Wednesday!

Inspiration Thursday

Hi Friends, 

This is Anna and I am here to share my project with you for this week.  :) 

Today I wanted to use the same image I used last week to show you how versatile it is.  You can do anything with this little guy.  I suppose it doesn't help that have this fascination with owl stamps to begin with.  :)  lol.. 

Today's card is fairly a simple one but I did use my Silhouette SD die cut machine to cut out some of the pieces.  So that added a little bit of a challenge for me.  Hope you like what I came up with for this week.

Today's card is fairly a simple one but I did use my Silhouette SD die cut machine to cut out some of the pieces.  This is a digital stamp called "Best of Friends Owl".

Jump on over to my blog to get all the details on how I created this round card.  Wishing you all a wonderful Day!

Thursday's Inspiration

Hi Stampers, Bloggers and Friends,

This is Anna, and this is my first post here on 2 Cute Rubber Stamps.  Today I am going to show you my first card I made as part of the 2 Cute Rubber Stamps Design Team.   I hope you like what I came up with. 

This is a digital stamp called "Best of Friends Owl".  I kind'a altered it a wee little bit.  Where you see the heart,  there is usually a spider there.  Well, its still there, I just pop dotted a heart, that I punched out, on top of it.  I wanted it to go with the theme I had in mind "Whooo Loves You?" And I didn't think the spider fit, and was thinking of a way to work with it.  and Voila..  Here you go. 

For more details on this card be sure to check out my blog:  CLICK HERE 

Have a great day Everyone!

Thank You Owl

Hello, it is another Wednesday here at 2 Cute DT Blog. That means it is my (Juanita) turn to share a project with you. I decided to use Best Friends Owl for a Thank You card I needed for a teacher at my daughter's school. This image is so cute and fun to work with. I intended to color my image in neutral colors so I could use any colors in the background, go figure I pick DP that has gray in it, lol.

Reminder that there is still plenty of time to enter our second challenge and get the adorable bunny digi for free. We look forward to seeing what you create.

Supplies:

Best Friends Owl

SU Card stock, DP, ink, brad and sentiment

Copics: E33, E35, E37, E47, E57, G14, G17, YR02, YR04, YR07, C3, C5, and C7

2 Cute Tuesday: Best of Friends Owl

I'm back again! This is Ann with another 2 Cute Tuesday creation!

Have you checked out Heidi's blog lately? If not, you've definitely got to visit! She has an adorable St. Patty's Day Turtle Digi for sale that is just PERFECT for the upcoming holiday. You also have to look through her sketches - there are some piggies there that I'm just dying to see turn into stamps.    There's one here (Piggie in the Rain), one here (Ballerina Piggie) and one here (Piggie Love). Why are pigs so cute?  Well, at least Heidi's piggie sketches are, lol.  Make sure to leave her some comments so that she'll turn those into stamps!!

Anywho, on to my creation! It doesn't have a pig on it, but this Best of Friends Owl stamp is just as cute! I like that you can do the out-of-bounds technique with the branch.  I think it looks kinda neat :)  This stamp is available right now at the 2 Cute Rubber Stamps Etsy in cling, wood, and as a digi.

Stamp: 2 Cute Rubber Stamps Best of Friends Owl, Whimsy Stamps Snippets Set 1; Ink: Copics; Paper: BasicGrey; Accessories/tools: Cuttlebug, Nestabilities, ribbon, MS border punch

to sit upon a wing and talk the breeze.
