Owls are fun!! :)

Hello everyone!! :)

I have a couple of cards made with the fabulous Clearly Besotted You're a Hoot set to share today- the CBS owl is just gorgeous... I ordered the stamps and die as soon as they came back in stock last month and had to have a play as soon as I could (it's just taken me an age to get the pics sorted... and they still look a little odd to me! :S)... this is what I did... just looking at this owl makes me smile!! :)

Two quick and easy but lovely (I think anyway!! ;)) cards :) I love browns with pinks or teals so the colour choices just happened... :)

I had fun mixing inks directly on the stamps to get the shading on the owls and to get the shade I wanted for the teal hearts :)

Still need a little more practice stamping on my die cuts... it's a bit hit and miss sometimes!! :S lol
