I had her scanned, saved but she flew away had to rescan and make sure she stayed on my puter. Have chocolate card base which had the next layers on it. I sponged the sky, next was the stamped water, next was 2 layers of sponged card stock torn to put down as layers of sand. Sponged versa mark here and there and put down chunky multi colored eb powder, heated it. Cut out eb folder fence--sponged and put down between the 2 sand layers, Made mask for sun and sponged, put down piece of twine for banner that was computer generated. Alas, do not have owl punch, so hand drew owl, punched bird punch wings, cut out owl added his wings with glue, paper pieced her swim suit, did different punches and cuts outs for eyes and beak, added punched flower--WHEW--then was done.

THIS is exactly what the world needs, bikini clad owls!!!! This is a hoot (pun intended). DonnaJeanne so much work went into this and every inch of it is fantastic. WooHoo have another DonnaJeanne original saved to My Favs.

What a cutie-patootie she is!! And the beach scene you've created for her is quite wonderful with the water stamp, the fence and the chunky embossed sand.

Lots of work and it paid off.. cute image., and the beach scene is wonderfully done...love the sand, the fence, the difference between the water and the sky is so perfect and hard to do! Great card for many reasons.

DonnaJeanne, an owl wearing a bikini - now I've seen it all. I love that water stamp it is perfect. Sorry for the late response - we have a new rescue dog and she has some health and behavior issues - so I am on call whenever she is awake. But she is improving, so things are hopeful.
