Owl for Baby

ETA: It's Day 2 of the Paper Pretties 2nd Anniversary Blog Hop!! See details here and get your clues today starting on Jessie's blog!

Good morning! This is a long overdue post! I've had this cute little guy done for quite some time but since he was a surprise gift for fellow Prettie Girl Jana and her new baby I had to wait until the package arrived before I could post it. :) If you want to see the whole box of goodies we put together for her, go here.

This cute little Owl shape is from Say It With Letters. I'm super excited to use this shape since I designed it! What a neat thing to see your work come to life!! Check out this post of Deb's to see what some of the other Design Team members made with their owl shape. If you decide to give the owl a try (or already have) I'd love to see it so please send me a link!!

I decided to make this a little name frame for baby Jackson, something that could stay in his room for many years. (The pic makes it look a bit washed out and doesn't show the color very well, sorry about that!) Once I covered the shape, the rest of it was made using various punches & Nestabilities. After the paper was all on, I decided it needed some texture - the feathers? they came from my chickens - lol! Don't worry, I washed them very carefully and picked only the softest prettiest ones.

Are you in an altering mood? Deb has filled the Store with lots of super cute shapes and kits perfect for Valentine's day or any love-filled occasion! One of my favorites is this super cute Swirl Heart - cute!!

Have a great Friday! I'm looking forward to having dinner with my friend Kim tonight - yippy, a night out! :)
