STAMPIN' UP! ADORABLE OWLS BIRTHDAY CARD - CALYPSO CORAL

 Today is the last day of Sale-A-Bration, which means that if you place a $90+ Stampin' Up! order with me, you can earn the very cute Adorable Owls stamp set for free!  I have paired one of the sweet owl images with Dandy Designs Paper, also a Sale-A-Bration freebie.  This massive paper pack, containing 48 sheets of 12"x12" double-sided patterned paper, is free with a $180+ order.  The colours and patterns are gorgeous.  You'll see a few of them showcased today, as I will blog another card this afternoon.

After sponging Calypso Coral ink around the edges of the star-patterned paper, I added a layer of the checked paper that I'd matted on Smoky Slate card.  These layers were all stuck down to a Calypso Coral panel, and Black & White Gingham Ribbon wrapped around.

I coloured the owl using Stampin' Blends markers, adding some Smoky Slate dots to his face and tummy.  To colour his beak and feet, I used the Mango Melody Stampin' Write Marker.  The Calypso Coral and black sentiments were created with Charming Sentiments and Adorable Owls stamp sets, using the Stamparatus on a piece of Basic White card.  A Harvest Die was used to cut them out.  Classic Matte Dots in black were added.

I heat-embossed, in white on Basic Black card, the longer sentiment from Artistically Inked.  Another Harvest Die was used to crop this piece.

Listed below are all the products I used to make this card.  If you live in Australia, and would like to shop with me for your Stampin' Up! supplies, you can get to my online store by clicking on any of the thumbnail images below.  NB:  Even though there are indicative prices for the Adorable Owls stamp set, and Dandy Designs papers, they cannot be purchased - they are available for free with qualifying orders before the end of today.

I hope you'll come back later today to see the second cute birthday card I made using these products!
