I have a “just because” card for the current Time Out Challenge:

Time Out Challenge 147

I made this card for my granddaughter so she would receive a cards when I sent a congratulatory card to her brother upon passing a karate test.

Owls

The white panel was embossed with Papertrey Ink’s “Simple Strips” Impression plate. I cut it down so there would be a border of the Hawaiian Shores card on each side, and then die cut three small circles with a Spellbinders circle die. The little owls from Clearly Besotted’s “You’re a Hoot,” were a prize I won on a blog contest quite awhile ago. I colored them with Copics and die cut them out to peek through the circles.

The sentiment from Reverse Confetti’s “So Many Sentiments” was embossed in white on black cardstock and trimmed down. Both it and the white panel were attached with dimensional tape. 

It’s very, very windy here, but so far no power outages. Halloween was almost a wash-out. We got just a few trick or treaters in the brief span when there was no rain, and a few die-hards after it starting raining again. Sarah said the other day that her memories of Halloween growing up were that they were cold and snowy! I do remember a couple where we had snow, but more of them were simply cold. Last night, however, it was in the 60’s.

  1. Such a cute card, very fun & I like that Hawaiian Shores blue paper. Oh yes “So Many Senitments” gets used a lot on my journal cards especially, it’s a set with so many possibilities.
    Halloween went on as planned in spite of the really nasty weather. Overnight (about 2am & yes I was up) there was the beginning of snow flurries! Thankfully nothing accumulated on the ground. I’m trying not to rush into the next season so I’d appreciate Mother Nature not pushing so fast into the next season (col).

  2. You are a clever and fun grandmother! We’ve never had trick or treaters in 40 years due to rural, 650 ft long dark driveway up a hill. Oh, well, more candy for us~ 😉

  3. what a lovely thought and she will love this fun card. I adore the placement of the images and the vibrant colours-super colouring. Thanks for joining Time Out

  4. Aww.. what a lovely sentiment to go along with these cuties. The coloring is beautiful and I aore the embossed panel on the top. Thank you for taking time out and join us at Time out challenges. Hugs ~ Ishani.

  5. Those owls are so adorable – and I love how you created the three openings for them to peek out of. The pinstriped panel is fun too! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Time Out! Jill
