Hang Your Stocking for CAS Christmas

Hi there.  Are you ready for the weekend?

Maybe you can play at CAS Christmas this weekend.

Trina is our host this month and she chose

I love these little owls with their stockings hung and waiting for Santa!

I've stamped the scene in Jet Black Archival ink and

used Zigs to watercolor the image.  I let it dry and using wet on wet

technique, I painted some Tumbled Glass in the background.

There's a little timid splatter of snow.

How will you hang your stocking?

Our Guest Designer, Helen, and our Design Team

have some awesome inspiration pieces for you.

Check them out at CAS Christmas.

Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.

Enjoy!

Christmas Owls

Hello friends.  I'm glad you could stop by.

Almost time for good St. Nick!

When we did our bird challenge at CAS Christmas, I loved this card by Emilia.

That sent me on a search for the stamp and I was lucky enough to find it on Ebay

for a decent price.

One of our daughter's family likes owls.

I'm not sure of the significance for them, but since there are three of them,

I thought a Christmas card with three of the owls would please them.

It took more than one try, but I was able to mask off two of the owls

to get just the three.

It was fun watercoloring with Zigs and my water brush.

I did a few splatters with diluted white paint, but I chickened out

before I got too many.  I didn't want a big splat to land on there.

I added a few sparkly snowflakes from my box.

I hope they like it.
