Special Delivery

The current Lawn Fawnatics challenge theme is inspiration from a book, song, or movie. I took my inspiration from the Harry Potter books and movies. Remember Hedwig, Harry's owl? I used Lawn Fawn's Special Delivery stamp set for my own take on the owl post mail delivery system featured in the series. 

I colored up the owl and accessories using Copic markers, then cut them out with the matching dies. For the background, I used a cloud stencil and distress ink to create a sky. The sun from the Spring Showers die set was cut from yellow cardstock and adhered to the upper left corner. I placed a strip of curved green die cut cardstock with stitching detail along the top edge at the bottom of the panel as grass, then added the owl in the cloud-filled sky using foam tape for dimension.  I colored up a few of the set's letter images and positioned them randomly beneath the owl image. The "special delivery" sentiment was curved on my clear block to match the curve of the hill, then stamped on the panel in black ink. The finished panel was adhered to a dark blue card base.
