I found some Lagoon cardstock scraps and this little owl that I had stamped but not used, and so I decided to rescue him by using him on my card. I also backed the card with my favourite purple fundamentals paper. (For some reason I thought we were supposed to use Thistle, not Gypsy, but I hope it still counts!)
The sentiment was something I thought a wise old owl would say, and I added some shimmer trim for extra embellishment. This was a fun way to use up some scraps I had lying around, and I love the colour combination so I will be using it again!
cute and humorous card, Lauren! Your owl is indeed very wise! I love how you flipped the Gypsy paper to show both sides of it and the shimmer trims coordinate nicely. Thanks for sharing this witty card with us at the Color Dare this week--please join us again soon.
