"Eh?" said the wee owl....
"Whooooooooooo said that? Whhhhat you talking about, the END?"
Well, today is my last challenge for Gingersnap Creations as a member of their Design Team and I've loved it on there. If you've not been involved at all with the Gingersnappers and the amazing challenges they set, then I highly recommend it.
Today is the start of the annual COPPER, GINGER or RUST challenge where you can play along by making anything using any or all of those colours.
I decided to make a card using my new 'Wee Owl' and 'Small Moon' which were released last week by Stampotique Originals.
I tried to create a really woody/musty/dry leafy feel to this by adding a bit of crackle paint and inking over it.
I used all Stampotique stamps- aswell as the owl and moon I added Mushroom Group , Swirl Stalks and Abstract Foliage. If the United States isnt easy for you to place an order directly from Stampotique Originals, then Happy Daze here in the UK stock all the stamps I've used. The new designs are on their way and Moira is taking pre-orders on them and you pay when they arrive.At least that way you are guaranteed to receive your choices. All you have to do is email Moira at Happy Daze with what images you'd like put to one side.
Please take a look at the rest of the team's ideas, there are some beautiful ones.
Thank you girls, its been a pleasure. I shall be still joining in with challenges when I can though, you haven't seen the last of me lol :0).

Jo, this is so gorgeous - when I saw it on Gingersnaps I knew it was yours before I saw your name. Sorry you're no longer going to be DT'ing for them but I know you will have lots of irons in the fire elsewhere so we still get our Jo fix!!
loving the texture and woodland feel of this creation.
Wonderful piece with such fabulous close-ups of that yummy background.
Gorgeous, Jo. That texture gives it that touchy feely element I love. Didn't know you had new stamps out - cool! Shall have to take a look... dangerous!
Wonderful card, I love those crackle paint accents!
Wonderful, wonderful textures and rich colours! What a beautiful card. It is very evocative of brown crunchy leaves. I can almost smell a crisp fall day....
It's a beauty Jo
What gorgeous texture Jo. You have most certainly achieved that woody effect. I can smell it, lol!
