Cool, but feeling brighter!

Hi everyone, I am feeling brighter now the weather has cooled down a bit! I haven't been doing much in my craft room except some backgrounds in journals and a little bit of sorting.

I really wanted to enter at Simon Says Monday challenge had a Spritz and Splatter theme...one of my favourite things to do, but what to do?

 Then this owl turned up..I had stamped it a while ago and it was in one of my Crafty Individuals boxes.

 I gave a him a night time setting using some distress inks and stencilling.
The Lavinia tree was stamped and I used some Iced Spruce DI to fill it out a bit. I used a home made mask to dab out some of the colour with water before using dabs of white and silver paint to get the misty moon. I spattered some of the silver paint to create some stars.
I added some finaliser brown on the eyes than filled in with a cheap glitter pen.
I think they look better than left uncoloured...
...I hope you agree.

 I would also like to enter at the Craft Stamper Magazine - May Challenge - Anything Goes

I'll be back soon!
Thanks for looking, Chris

    Love, love this nighttime tag too - you're on a roll of new favourites for me!! - and that gorgeous starry sky, with the subtly shaded moon shimmering on high. Just beautiful. I don't mind it being slightly cooler as long as the sun keeps shining!
