The branch was one I had cut from my cricut sometime ago and never used. The sentiment was a little too bright against this dark background so while the card stock was still in the die I sponged the center with some ink to darken it up a bit.

PERFECT! I always forget about that sponging while in the die technique ... thanks for inspiring me (& reminding me lol). Having a great weekend ... hope you are too!
An outstanding masculine card, Connie! The owl is a very wise and dignified looking creature. A simple design, but with all the good stuff. I love it!
Such an awesome card. Love the gold paper against the black and grey. Loving the owl too. How nice that you should just happen to have a cut branch kicking around. This ones a winner.
How charming!Owls mean wisdom in mythology,I think this card is so cute...Hugs!
