I was looking for a Groovi plate to play with, and came cross the Woodland Owls - https://claritystamp.com/products/woodland-owls-br-a5-square-groovi-plate-br-set-gro-an-41094-03
I reckon they will do just what I wanted with a fair bit of thought, mainly on the colouring side. My idea is to trace very lightly the main outline of the birds, and work on them as Linda has shown us on the fluffy robins at the Open Days. I need to look at the mix of colours I need to achieve the result I am after.
I will probably leave out a lot of the branches around the birds as I think it might be too busy. That is the beauty of Groovi. It is so easy to leave things out if they don't fit your plans.
I also need to think now about what to do for this month's PTC swap. I have a couple of ideas, and might try both to see which works best. Living not far from the Potteries does bring some thoughts to mind.
Ok, instead of talking about it, I will grab a tumble drier sheet and get started. What are you all working on at the moment?

Look forward to seeing your projects develop Maggie.
Good luck Maggie
I have nothing on my desk at the moment as I have been struck with dreaded lurgy Wednesday 3am I had a workshop that day so by the time I got home I was all in . It's not like me to be floored but I have been. Good job I was more or less up to date with secret stuff. Felt a bit better today so might try tomorrow to do a bit of prep for a demo next Saturday xx
Good luck Maggie, I hope to see the result...
I have been drawing this evening and I have time left to made a card. I was very productive this time.
The card is now to see on my blog.
I started one of the embroidery plates last night but did not get far as too tired after having Taylor all day. He was golden but babies are a good sleeping pill at our age. Good luck with your owls. X
