For this card I used a sketch from Retro Sketches to create my project. I used Grey as my base because I can't seem to keep my paws out of the Whisper CS lately. It's just such a pretty shade of grey. I added some neon pink and blue to my paper pieced owl bookmark, inspired by the Moxie Fab World Keen on Neon Challenge. The super bright colors just pop against that gentle Whisper background.

Did you see that my little owl is a removable bookmark? I found this super cute owl bookmark idea on a Norwegian blog pinned to Pinterest. I'd already decided what my card was going to look like, but as soon as I saw that pin I knew my owl was born to be a bookmark!

I paper pieced the front of the owl using Cotton Candy and Lagoon inks, and then cut out the whole owl. Then I stamped an owl onto Whisper CS and trimmed it out with a small mat to form the back of my bookmark. I adhered only the top of the pink owl to the Gray owl with liquid glass so it'll be nice and sturdy - you just slip her over the page top to mark your page! I added Silver Glitter glitz accents to her beak and feathers, plus Bitty Sparkle eyes embedded in Liquid Glass for her eyes.

I trimmed my faux polaroid frame from White Daisy CS and stamped the center piece with the chevron background image by inking it on the pad with a side to side swiping motion to add extra texture to the background. The sentiment is paper pieced and selectively inked to use just the words I wanted. This set has a bunch of sentiments! I used medium sparkles for the thought bubbles leading to my multi-layered stamped thought bubble. I finished off with some hot pink stitching around the card edge. I love that extra pop of pink!

I'm linking this to the Paper Issues Shades of Grey Challenge...cause I loves me some Grey, and you should check out the fabulous projects going on there if you love Grey as much as me!
