Winter Owl Card


You will be seeing a lot of this winter scene patterned paper on my holiday cards! Even though I have more than enough Christmas cards for this year, I continue to make more and will do that in January as well. I like to work on next years cards while I'm in the holiday spirit but without the stress of a mailing deadline Don't worry though, I will share the new holiday cards sparingly until late 2024. 😊

It looks like this is the first card I'm sharing with these beautiful Winter Owls, a stamp and die bundle I bought back in October from Stampin' Up. I just love the set and have made some winter birthday cards with it and this paper as well. I'll be sharing those soon.  This owl & the sentiment were stamped on white pearl cardstock for some subtle shimmer. I also added Stickles to the stamped snowflakes and a couple of dots with Pops of Colour for a translucent, sparkly enamel dot look.


Having been asked how many cards I make I thought it would be fun to keep track this year. Many of my posts include more than a single card or project and below is my tally.
