Happy Owls
Hello, sweet friends!
As some of you may have noticed, I haven’t been posting too often, but that’s not to say I haven’t been keeping busy. I have three videos going up within the week, the brand new dies and Patriotic Embellishment Kit will release on Sunday and there’s lots of other things happening behind-the-scenes. There are collaborations coming, new products and well, you just never know what other surprises I have up my sleeves.
Recently my dad needed me to re-create a card for a show display and well, I had to change it up a bit. I don’t know about you, but I rarely create the exact same card over- there’s always something I want to change! This card was inspired by THIS CARD that I posted for an old blog hop.
I’ve been getting TONS of emails and comments asking where this large stitched tag is from. Good news: it’s a die that I designed and will be available for purchase on Sunday. Just a few more days! Also, that fun stitched “hill” is part of the border trio that I designed as well.
Curious as to why there are eight owls on this card? The original card was designed for my dad as a Father’s Day card and there are 5 of us kids (the ones in the box), then there is my brother-in-law and my parents. Whenever I can, I always try to include the 5 of us kids into the cards for my parents…. speaking of which, I should probably start designing my Father’s Day card for this year!
Since this card was based off of a previous card, I’d love to hear which one you prefer! Personally, I like the new one (since it’s more my colors and style now), but I’m curious to hear your opinions! I’m thinking this might be a fun feature….yes? no?
That’s all for today’s post. I’m hoping to craft all day today, if that happens, I’ll post snapshots of what I’m working on to my social media accounts. Be sure to follow me on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Sending big crafty hugs to you all….

I like your new version!
Cute card.. I like the new one.. :) but both are adorable..
It’s a tough choice! I love both!
The old version seems to catch my eye a bit more than the newer one. But thats not saying I like one over the other if that makes sence?! I loved the newer one when I saw it and then when got to the area where it shows both, the older one just seemed to pop out at me more! Both are awesome!
I like both versions, but I think I prefer the newer one, at least a tiny bit! It’s so hard to choose, since I like things about both. I do think showing an old and new version of a card side-by-side is a neat idea, though. Thanks so much for taking time to share this! Have a great day!
Both cards are adorable, but I like the new version better. It’s more girlie. Can’t wait to see the videos you’ve been working on!
Love the new card design & the stitched tag shape!! But the older card is cute, too!!
Well I love them both but the pretty white paper doily card wins my vote!
I am really looking forward to your new release!! I prefer the older version of the two cards because I think the images stand out a little more but both are cute!!
super sweet cards! I think the new version bcuz of the doily & soft colors! super cute owls too!
What a great set of cards….i love the softness of the new one but for a Father’s Day card i would go with the first. The images stand out more.
I like the darker colors of the old version and the design of the new version!
Hi Paulina,
I really like them both, but I think your new card inches out in front, since it’s your newer style, and one that I love a lot! I can’t wait to see what you have in store for us over the next few weeks…it sounds like fun! Thanks for the update!
