Happy Wednesday, peeps! Hope you're doing well today! I have a little encouragement card for a sweet young lady at our church. We are participating in a prayer challenge, where all the adults are praying for school-age children. My wee one happens to be the granddaughter of my high school trig teacher! She is as sweet as can be and smart as a whip, too! Anyway, I made this card for her and will write a few encouraging words inside to let her know I have been praying for her! It uses Check You Out:
This card fulfills a few challenges too: the Fab Friday colors and the Try Stampin On Tuesday sketch:
The colors threw me a little, but since there are several elements in the set that could be stamped in different colors, that's what I did...the owl is Cajun Craze, the books are all four colors, and I used the Pretty Peacock for the background:
I added a Mint Macaron border, diecut from the Seasonal Layers dies, and the hearts were cut from the retired Wood Words dies. I even gave Mr Owl a little bow tie of Blackberry Bliss twine, and the twine at the bottom of the card is some Mint Macaron from a past Paper Pumpkin kit!
I am also entering this in the Festive Friday Inspo board: I used blue (Pretty Peacock), orange (Cajun Craze), hearts and encouragement theme:
