Challenge 37 :: A Sketch

 For this challenge I decided to go with a fall theme.

I colored several of these owls for a PK challenge that I missed the deadline for.
She is Smartie the Owl  PK-126
I colored her with my copics and then went over parts of it with my yellow stickles 
The circles where cut with my Spellbinders - Big Scalloped Circles Large.
On the lighter brown circle, I used my permanent marker to make it pop and then 
used my copic marker and yellow stickles.

The circles where cut with My Marvy punch 
 I went over some of them with my yellow stickles 
Twine - the Twinery 
Ribbon - American Craft. 
The papers all came from my scrap box. 
Gems - Recollections 

Now I have to decide who to send it to.
I make cards for challenges and then they just sit in a box to be used one day.
I have decided to stop doing that.
I know I love getting snail mail 
It makes me feel special knowing that someone thought about me
and went out of their way to mail me a letter or a card.

Hope you like it as much as I do.
