Stamp N Plus challenge-Owl Graduation Card

Our new monthly stamp challenge can be found at the 

Stamp N Plus blog 

starting today and ending at the end of the month. 

The challenge this month is to use black and white only on your creation. {The red in my card is my watermark}. 

You are only allowed four entries for this month long challenge. Prizes will be awarded at the end of the month.  

For my card my owl stamp I stamped it on black by using white craft ink. It takes a full over night for it to dry but well worth it. I then used a circle punch to give it shape. The sentiment are simply letters that I put in the circle. I eyeballed the whole thing. I like the way it turned out. Perfect for graduation season.

You can find the Owl stamp M970 & the alphabet letters at the given links. These rubber stamps are of fabulous quality producing a beautiful image every time.

Other Supplies:

Patterned paper by GCD, circles by Creative Memories Cutting System or punch, border punch by Fiskars and black ink by Tsukineko.

Be sure to visit the other DT members blogs for their wonderful black and white inspiration.
