My Favorite Things Wednesday Sketch Challenge - Sketch #330

This was one of the very rare evenings when everything came together  perfectly and quickly for this card. {LOVE that!} Of course, it helps so much that I started by pulling out my Warm & Fuzzy Friends card kit from My Favorite Things.  The kit was a limited time offer, but  the website offers the pieces individually. I started by stamping and die cutting the owls onto water color paper then colored with Tombow markers and blended. The papers are from MFT Trail Mix and October Afternoon Campfire. The finished card is 4.25 square.
