Wise owl

   A new QKR Stampede challenge begins today with an anything goes theme.
   I have used the digi graduating owl and after colouring it using Promarkers I framed it with brown card which had been cut using two Tattered Lace decorative rectangle dies.

Gardening

   My dad was always gardening and it is what I remember most about him when I was a child. This image from Hunkydory's Little Book of Manly Moments which I have decoupaged brings back fond memories. I matted and layered it onto gold mirri and green card and added a sentiment made using Tattered Lace dies.
