Hostess Monday

Its time for me to share with you a special creation I made for Digital Delights. I'm not sure about you, but I love making my own decoupage using stamped/digi images. So that's what I did for my Hostess Monday creation!

After taking an absolute age on deciding what image I would use, I finally settled on 'Celebration Owl' I just thought he was perfect to layer. What do you think?

This last photo shows you the layers I have created. Just love the finished look of this!
