Owls are casing the neighborhood!

So the other night Renee(neighbor Renee) called around 9:30. It seemed odd we thought maybe something was wrong? She had just gotten home and was standing outside. Apparently when she got out of the car she heard the hoot hooting of an owl very near by. When she turned around she spotted him on the neighbor across the streets chimney. Then called here. So now we're all outside on the phone staring at this owl. He was HUGE sitting up there almost half the height of the chimney. I wished there was a brighter moon or more light all we could really see was his silhouette but it was enough to really tell who was perched up there. Probably watching us crazy people outside in the freezing cold talking to each other via the phone! 3 houses apart! Dave then spent the rest of the evening checking and reporting back that the owl was still there, then offering Petunia and Daisy a trip outdoors to stretch their legs! HA

To that end I made this card this week. Stamps are justjohanna's Odd Bird Planet, short house and Michou Owl. I sponged chalk ink to make the background and added stickles to the windows, die cut and as stars. The rub ons are Basic Grey and October Afternoon, pattern paper is BoBunny Double Dots. Flowers are Chatterbox. Coloring is done with Copics and the die cut is Stampin Up.

So today I'm finishing up my sparkle projects for the challenge last night! Can't wait to show you! Have a great day!

Did anyone try to get a photo? I wonder what kind of owl it was.

Great card. I like Michou perched up there.
