Safari Owen

 Hello everyone, today I wanted to share with you a card I made for a special birthday boy overseas. I wanted an Australian theme seeing that is where the card will be posted from so I chose the Paper Nest Dolls image Safari Owen.

Seeing that this card has to go through the post to the other side of the world I had to keep the embellishments to a minimum. So I decided to go with a rustic look.

How cute is Owen's Koala friend! Makes me sad to think of how many of our beloved Australian animals we lost recently to the disastrous bush fire season we had!

This adorable image Safari Owen is available rubber here  & in  digital format which can be found here.

Also if you wanted to help our fury friends in the wild who have been injured you can make a donation to WIRES. These guys help rescue our injured native wildlife & do a fantastic job. They need all the help we can get.

Supplies:

Stamp Paper Nest Dolls "Safari Owen" Magnolia "Carte Postale"

Paper: Ultimate Crafts - Australiana Collection

Ink: Tim Holtz "Antique Linen", Memento "Rich Cocoa"

Colouring Medium: Copics

Accessories: Ultimate Crafts Gum Nuts, Martha Stewart Photo Corner Punch, Burlap, Cabochons & Twine from my stash.

Cupid Owen

Hello everyone, with only 4 sleeps till Valentines day, today I am back sharing a Valentines Day card using one of the sweet images from Paper Nest Dolls newest Valentines Day release called Cupid Owen.

I wanted to make a romantic shabby style card, so I decided to use pink for my colour scheme instead of the traditional Valentines Day reds.

For that romantic feel I embellished my card using hearts, butterflies & lace. You cannot see it on the photo, but I gave the butterflies & Owen's wings a brush with clear Wink of Stella pen to give it a soft shimmer.

This super sweet image Cupid Owen is available as a digi here. Make sure you check out the other new cute PND Valentines Day images also called: Raccoon Love Letter, Raccoon Smooch, Raccoon with Heart Box & Love Letter Emma.
