A Spooky Sneak Peek

Out for Publication

Stamp It! Cards, on sale January 19, 2010




As some of you may know, I start as a design team member with Cornish Heritage Farms in September. Well... several days ago I got the thrill of receiving a big ol' box of brand new rubber in the mail!! Aaaah, nuthin' like it, LOL!! Anyway, I have been given the go-ahead to start with some sneak peeks, and this adorable little spooky owl is one of them!!! She is Owl Silhouette, and she's the Stamp of the Month for September.

I stamped this little spookster on a piece of "Citrus" paper from Basic Grey's Ambrosia line... I will be using this paper a lot this Halloween, it's got such wonderful variations in color. I also used some Memory Box patterned paper, a Jenni Bowlin calendar card, and some ribbon, twine, bling, button, and hemp cord (see supply list for the details). What a fun image this was to work with! I'll be playing some more in the coming days, so watch for some more peeks (sneaky and otherwise :)). Have a great Saturday!
