Anyway - it's time for a fun challenge at Delightful Challenges featuring the wonderfully adorable images available at Digital Delights by Louby Loo. My card didn't end up the way it originally started - I started with a different image and completely blew it! So then I headed back over to the store and purchased two images that are available in the Almost Free bin. This is Luvvy Owl and Tree of Love. You can't beat for a grand total of $0.70 - but you better hurry.
The challenge this week is:
Victorian/Distressed Look
Not a challenge I excel at, but I think my attempt is pretty good. I created the a center step card, you can find the tutorial here on SCS by Frances Byrne. What a fun card!
This type of card really showcases your focal point.
So, head on over and be prepared to be inspired. Then play along and since you're there, you might as well do a little bit of shopping.

Melissa, you did a stellar job on this card. I'd love to learn this template. The image you chose (and how you colored it, is gorgeous. Owls are funny eh (from Canada!!!) they go in and out and in and out, but how you have done up this one...it would never go out. I am in awe of the template use! luv teamie samara
