Owl Birthday !

 Hello Everyone, I hope you are all well, and coping with everything that's going on just now. Thankfully the vaccine is rolling out well so that gives hope.

Alistair gets his tomorrow, so it's up early and away to the vaccination center for 9am. However, Scotland's lockdown has been extended till the end of February, but it is making a difference.

I have a card today that was made for a friend's Husband last year;


Sorry about the photo, not my best. I've used the lovely owl stencil from Imagination Crafts and glitter paste onto black card, mounted on to brown glitter card. A simple enough wee card.

Well, it's just a quick pop in and out today, whilst there is still a bit of light left I'm hoping to get a bit of colouring done, so till next time, keep yourselves safe and see you soon,

Oh I do love and owl and this a fine specimen and stenciled with that great glitter paste. I'm so pleased that Alistair is about to get his vaccine. John had his just over three weeks ago and I felt very relieved even though it hasn't altered our behaviour in any way. If only we could say the same for everybody we'd soon have this virus kicked into touch! Hugs Christine xx

A lovely contrast with the shimmer paste and black card. The owl is a great subject to choose for a male card too, I'm sure he loved it.

Great effect of glitter paste onto black, beautiful card.
Nobody knows how long will be the "immunity" after the vaccines and what will be the sides effects on human bodies in the long run (they are experimenting on us to see, until 2025). However it seems that masks, social distancing and lockdowns will not finish, because there will be new global pandemics (source: WHO). At the some time, in any country people's lives are destroyed and freedoms deleted.

This a very nicely done card! Your are inspiring me to get out one of my stencils and my paste and give it a try again. (It's been a while so my paste may be dried up...I sure hope not)
