Here is my card:
I just thought these little owls were darling... all loved up on their little bench! They are colored with Flex Markers and the image layer is die cute using a Nestabilities die. The leaves are die cut from a Tim Holtz set using two different shades of green paper. I hand embossed the veins in the leaves before distressing them with various distress inks to get the fall colors. I am quite pleased with how they turned out. The brown polka dot papers are from a 'pick and mix' bunch I got at Summer Crafting. The red polka dot paper is from a Create and Craft Christmas Paper Pack and the chestnut paper is from a Woodland Folk set. The Sentiment is from 3 Birds if I remember correctly. I have been trying to use up bits from my stash so I took a bit from everywhere for this one!
Next, I chose one of the lovely images from Stitchy Bear Digital Stamps who are offering a $ 10 voucher as a prize.
Here is the card:
I don't tend to do many 'straight to paper' single layer cards, but I had a bit of a play with this lovely Stitchy Bear image in My Craft Studio Professional and tried out some of the new features. The background is either from MCS Flourishes Volume 1 or possibly Floriography. I really have to start making notes..lol. After printing, I thought it just needed a bit of bling so I added some gems and viola!

Just want to let you know that the link to Erin's blog isn't working. It gives an error message that the blog no longer exists. I'd guess the URL is mis-typed. :-D
Hiya...thanks for that. I just cut and paste it, but I did some detective work and it seems on the JIC post the link has an extra 'l', so I will let them know over there. Thanks for catching that :)

Love the soft coloring on the owls, Denise, and the way you designed the card with the silhouette is marvelous! Lovely gems.
