I was too busy to play yesterday, so I tried to combine today's sketch challenge with yesterday's color challenge. I'm not sure I succeeded with the colors, but I did give it a try!!
This is a sneak peek of Mark's Finest Papers' Owl Be There set, which will be released in August. I love this cute owl! As soon as I saw him, I knew he would be perfect for the birthday of an owl-loving friend. The little flourish and both sentiments from from this fun set, too. The owl is stamped on a small panel that I slipped inside a tiny handmade envelope. The panel can be taken out of the envelope (there's another message stamped at the bottom!).
Thanks for stopping to take a peek!
