If you're not familiar with Dilly Beans Digi Stamps (or even if you are!) head on over to their website where you will find the cutest images ever! Then head on over to their challenge blog, Dilly Beans Designers and Friday Challenges, and check out the challenge for this week! It's "stripes"! Yipes! LOL!
I colored "Winter Owl" with Copics using some retired SU holiday DSP for my color palette. I just had to add some wiggle eyes to this fun fellow and also stamped a pine branch (SU) for him to rest on! His chest was given some texture by using the colorless blending pen to make dots all over. For some texture on his body feathers I just "flicked" the brown Copic over the area after the ink from the first coloring had dried. Lastly I sponged in some clouds and used a Nestabilities circle die to cut him out.
I layered him on several patterns of the DSP and then trimmed off the part of the circle that was hanging over the edge of the layers. Before putting this large piece on the card base I added three snowflake brads and several frosted "snowballs" to outline the circular piece.
Off to stamp some more!

Darling- I love the great colors-and I love the google eyes on the owl- such a great card!
What a lovely card.I love how you colored his tummy, I thought you had pieced it designer paper. The wiggly eyes are perfect.
Hi Paige, Glad you stopped by my blog! Your owl card is ADORABLE! Love the orange, brown and green color combo and the googly eyes are perfect!
Paige, this is awesome! Love the fun googlie eyes and the inventive means of coloring his tummy and feathers. The sponged clouds are great too, plus the added branch...ok, I guess I love it all! The embellies in a semi-circle to accent the oval nestie is genius too.
Isn't he just the cutest lil' owl. Loving the colours and layout. Thank you for playing in the DBC.
