Good evening and welcome back! Tonight’s tag is an owl at sunrise on a wintry day… those wide eyes made him look so hyped on caffeine – even more so with googly eyes! I just HAD to make up this sentiment to go with a decaf coffee gift box:
Materials used:
- Unity Stamp Company Owl See You stamp
- ARTplorations CLOUDS stencil
- Memento Rich Cocoa dye ink
- Tombow Dual Brush Markers #025 & 879
- Pebbles Inc Pearlescent Chalks Jewel Tones
- Darice 5mm paste on eyes
- Tombow adhesive
- Core’dinations white cardstock
- Darice twine
I’m playing along in the following hops and challenges:
- Coffee Lovers 2015 Winter Blog Hop: http://wp.me/p5K3PQ-4w
- This week’s Hop with Unity: http://theunitystampco.blogspot.com/2015/12/hop-with-unity.html
- STAMPlorations ARTplorations 2015 Flash Stencil Linky Party: http://stamplorations.blogspot.com/2015/12/artplorations-stencil-blog-hop-day-2.html
- Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Tag it!: http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/simon-says-tag-it-2/
Before I go, I have another bonus to share… a special little something you might enjoy adding to your coffee to warm you up on cold winter nights. Sort of a DIY Bailey’s:
Irish Creme Liqueur
- 1 3/4 cup of your favorite liquor (scotch, bourbon, whisky, brandy, or a combo
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 2 Tablespoons Chocolate syrup or 1 Tablespoon powdered cocoa
- 2 teaspoons instant coffee
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Put in blender and blend until smooth on low. Keeps up to 1 month refrigerated (maybe! wink-wink)
See you tomorrow!

Oh, silly owl for drinking too much coffee……NO WAY is he going to get any shut-eye today!!! Boy will he pay for it tonight, though, when he falls asleep on the wing while hunting. lol…. Such a cute tag for the decaf gift. Love the sunrise background and those wonderful googly eyes!!! Owls are such a great motif for coffee projects and one that you only see occasionally. Lovely work, D.Ann!!
