a work in progress

 Hello Friends, How are you?? Any exciting plans for the weekend? We are heading to the beach...can you believe summer is over ?? Which means it's official my DD is a senior!! So many good things happening. :)
I have been itching to make cards with these absolutely adorable owls from Penny Black called "Moonlight Owls" 
On most images I alter the eyes in some way ...so I thought I would share some of those details today. Almost always I enlarge the eyes with a black Sharpie marker. On the second owl I drew eye lids and lashes. I also LOVE to use Glossy Accents and or Enamel Accents on the eyes. The second pair of owls above I added white enamel accents and waited for them to dry. After they were dry I added black enamel accents ON TOP of the white. So dimensional 
The owls at the top of this photo (above) I applied a thick coat of glossy accents. The next day I added black enamel accents ON TOP of the glossy accents. You have to be careful and practice on a piece of scrap first...be sure to get all the air bubbles out too. THIS IS MY FAVORITE...today! 
In this photo all I did was add the enamel accents. Don't get me wrong...I love this look and use it often but, I love the layering of the liquids. Which is your favorite? 
Many thanks for your visit today and hugs, Kathy
