For my card today I have used more of the yummy Cloud9 BeLoved paper for this Anniversary card. Aren't these owls just the cutest pair and as well as being perfect for valentines I thought they would be great to use for an Anniversary card for my mother and father-in-law. It's not until April but now i'm well prepared!
The clouds are part of the designer paper so thought it would be great to stamp the sentiment in the center.
I didn't want my little owl lovers to be floating around in the air so I stamped them twice. Coloured one in full and then cut it out cutting off their tail feathers. I then stamped the image again and just coloured in their claws and tail feathers. I then cut just this part out from the second image. I stuck the fibre into place behind the main image then matched it up with the claws and tail behind on the second. Ta da.. you have them sitting on a little branch.. I think it turned out kinda neat don't you?

Oh Nikki, this is so beautifully colored and laid out! I love how you used the dp cloud for the sentiment, how clever! Your blending on the owls is magnificent! Just a gorgeous card!
