Be You
5.5" x 4" base card
5.25" x 3.75" cardstock base from the Green Stack (Just left over scraps.)
3.25" Owl from Give a Hoot on Page 28 (Pieces cut from random scraps.)
"Be You" stamp was from a set I got at a garage sale. No clue on the manufacturer.
The owl drives me a bit nutty. Why? Because I purposely pulled out random papers and made it into the owl. I didn't coordinate on purpose - That can drive anyone a little crazy. Why would I subject myself to this horror? Well... The card is for a teenage girl who is struggling to just be herself. She seems to be afraid of her own skin and hasn't had a chance to "wise up" yet. So, I gave her a little pep talk the other day and encouraged her to be herself. Because that's the person we love. She's special just the way she is. That speech... So I thought this was a good follow up on our conversation. Enjoy!
