Woot another excuse to do an Owl card

Hi all I saw this sketch at Retro sketches and knew exactly what to use, funny how that happens sometimes.  I have been wanting to use the big Al owl for a while and this sketch was perfect.  So when I stumbled on the challenge at Less is more to use three different shades of green, the card was so easy.  I had this really great embossing folder that I hadn't used and it looks so cool.
So here is my card.....   
Details below......  



Stamp sets.................Kaszazz Big Al, Stampin'up woodgrain
Embossing folder.....Cuttlebug
Card stock.................green, Stampin'up Lucky limeade, White
Ink...............................lucky Limeade

Have a great day..
Sandy :)

    2. Thanks Sandy... I think that Blogger automatically turned WV on when they upgraded the new interface... as you don't see it on your own blog we really need someone to tell us if it's on!
      Thanks a bunch!

    1. Its the first time I've used that embossing folder. Love how you can use it all as one thing, or cut out words to highlight or use the cut out words on different cards.
