I'm mullti-tasking today - this is a card for CrazyKim's mum who is just starting into chemo. It also fits this week's sketch challenge, and I went with a lot of green for today's WT challenge.
5 3/4" square base; I used the negative from punching the greenery to stencil it in 3 shades of green. Papers are K & Co Neapolitan.
The owl is from Sideshow Stamps, stamped with Versafine Black on watercolour paper and coloured with H2Os. Forgot to add Glossy Accents to beak and claws - I'll do that now .
It's layered up on a Lacy Square cut from watercolour paper, sponged with green, stamped with a few leaves and sprayed with Glimmermist. (Sweet Ksnurse noticed that that was the only challenge that stumbled me as far as materials went in the HYCCT challenges, and sent some in a lovely care package today).
The sentiment is punched from one of the papers and layered up on a punched daisy. I added a few little bits of punched, sponged greenery too
