Apple for the Teacher

Hallo Everyone!

Day two of our set in appreciation

of all teachers and tutors at this

the school year end

Today we have Louise Thomson

with some lovely Owls!

"Lots of the new Woodware stamps have 

got a patchwork style to them making 

them ideal for paper piecing. 

I stamped these lovely owls several times 

on different papers to give me plenty of choice.

Lots of cutting out then followed!

Using a square die I cut an aperture 

rom a square card. 

I mounted the cut out square on another card 

to get two cards for the price of one.

I stamped a Woodware sentiment 

on both using cobalt Archival ink.

Then all that remained was to stick together

 all the paper pieces and finalise the layouts.

I chose the owls as I thought they were perfect

 for an end of term teacher card, 

but the cards could be used for 

lots of other occasions too."

Thank you Louise for your

super fun card ideas

Owls always remind me of my Dad

who learned that lovely poem

with one of his grandchildren, that goes

"the wise old owl lived in an oak...."

I'll leave you all with that

'Till tomorrow
