Night Owl!!!

Helloooo there :0)

As I write this blog post on Saturday, I'm quite literally blowing the dust off my computer keyboard here as we are in the middle of building works at home..... despite covering everything with dust sheets all week it still finds it's way in to leave a tell tale layer!!!
Access to my craftspace has been limited too which is why I'm sharing a card I created for Octobers Craft Stamper magazine so I apologise if you've seen this before...


I've used the Paper Smooches sets called Autumn Groves, Chubby Chums* and My Peeps* to make this night-time woodland scene. The sky has been inked on the base card over a circle mask to give a bright white moon. The owl is nestled on the edge of the window aperture and the trees are placed at different heights behind it to give the scene some depth. 
The fun sentiment is quite good for a 'Well done' style of card or simply a quick 'Hello' ..... a bit different from the chilling screeches the Tawny Owls use in the woods near us at night!! Perfect for Halloween last week!!

Thanks for stopping by today :0)

Welcome Autumn

Hello! 
Are you an Autumn lover? I am :-) It has to be my absolute favorite season of them all...those crisp mornings,low sun,the colours-oh the colours! So beautiful. It is a time to cosy down,snuggle up,pull out the sweaters and boots and bake yummy things. It is also my most active time on Pinterest...I have SO many pumpkin recipes pinned,I really don't think I will get through them all before the pumpkins go out of season!
One of the recipes I pinned this week was the scrumptious sounding Pumpkin and Black Bean Soup-yummo! I haven't had the chance to make it...yet,but it got me thinking it would be nice to decorate all my Autumn recipe cards with some of the gorgeous stamps that are in the shop. Then I thought how nice and different it would be to send a few of these cards out to friends to welcome the coming coolness. Then I thought of my very neglected Paper Smooches Clipboard die set....then this happened....


The buttons are cut from foam using the Cat's Pajamas Buttons die,and threaded with Lawn Fawn Autumny Retro Triple Twine, the stamps are all Paper Smooches Autumn Grooves, (I am going to get a LOT of mileage out of this set!) and the dies are the insanely cute Paper Smooches Clipboard Dies
Not sure who is going to get this yet,but I hope I get invited to try the soup ;-)
Happy,happy Autumn people :-)
