SPooKy OwL

Sorry I've been slaking on the free cut files lately. It has been one hectic week. I am hoping to hear about my Some Odd Girl DT submission soon. They said they've had a hard time narrowing it down. We'll see.

Hope you use this owl for your Halloween decorating.

Have a good rest of the week.

Submitting time for the Some Odd Girl DT

Down to the wire....that is normally NOT me. I am a planner and like to work ahead of time. But this summer has gotten away from me! Seriously where did August go?????

The submissions for the SOG DT is September 1 midnight. (here is the application info). Go apply!

First of all I was going to use the Turkey digi for my submissions, but when I saw this OWL I knew I needed to have him!!!! I bought one for my craft bestie too! SERIOUSLY! HOW CUTE IS HE!

Here is what I sent in:

Card 1: Hoo-Hoo-Hooray

Recipe—

Solid Paper: White-Neenah, Kraft-Papertrey Ink

Pattern Paper: Basic Grey

Ink: Black-Momento, Grey-Papertrey Ink

Card 2: What a Hoot

Card 3: Happy Wedding

And then I needed a third to send it, so I chose the Wedding gnomes.
I chose this one because, I took regular gnomes and made them into a wedding couple. It was apropos.  My cousin (who got married) had their reception at the The Happy Gnome in St. Paul. I really like how this card came out.
