Wise Owl Hangin in New Leaf


Oh I just love PTI's Wise Owl, one of the cutest sets ever! Here is birthday card featuring wise owl and Turning a New Leaf. I used a kraft base, the leaves are all ripe avocado. The sentiment is from Giga Guidelines. I stamped the owl on a scrap piece of cream, colored and cut him out. I have a little piece of twill tied around the base. Thats it!
I hope your Monday is starting off a little better than mine. I am so grouchy, most likely because I can't have breakfast. I am a breakfast eater. I cant have breakfast because I have a blood draw this morning and it needs to be a fasting blood draw. I have to do this every three months since I have diabetes (type 1). The information helps them see how I am doing with managing the disease and how my pump is working, etc. Its been ten years but I can not get used to these blood draws. My arm veins wont even cooperate anymore, they take it out of my hand now. And it HURTS! Ok I am done whining now! Thanks for stopping by

Michele, this is a wonderful card and since I'm fortunate enough to have both sets, I'll have to play around with it. :) I hope you treat yourself to a huge b-fast after the blood draw! :)
