OSAAT #212 use a Digi


This is my last card as a member of the Design Team of One Stitch at a Time. I've been here for three years and I thought it was time for a change otherwise I'll stagnate. I've enjoyed working with all the images and even more so with the DT - I'll miss you all.

The theme is Use a Digi and it was Jeanette's turn to choose an image for our mini team and she chose Hope Jacare's Swirly Owl Branch which is available to buy at the Stitchybear Digi Outlet.

My card blank is a large square by Joanna Sheen. I coloured the image with my Promarkers and then cut it into a rectangle and matted it on to dark brown card. The green backing paper is from a pad by First Edition called Hideaway. That was also matted on to the dark brown Papermill card. I used a Tattered Lace owl die to cut an owl in beige paper and then matted that on to a dark brown oval, cut with a Spellbinders die. I cut a narrow strip of the brown card to set across the bottom of the card and then decided to mirror the swirly branch in the image by using a Marianne swirl die. I used this on my last challenge card too - it gets used a lot! Well worth the money. The oval with the owl was raised on foam pads. The only embellishments then were three pieces of dark brown spotty Card Candi.

Please check out the OSAAT blog for details of the prizes.

  4. Like the Owl theme birthday card. Especially like the owl die. Good luck in your adventures after OSAAT. My last w/ OSAAT post also. My hubby gave me pjs (I had told him I needed some Spring/Summer pjs) with Owls on them & an ornament with a Dragonfly painted on it from his business trip to Tempe, AZ for Mother's Day. I like the pjs & ornament. My daughter sketched me a Vintage Autographic style Camera.
