Get Your Owl On - Hahaha!

 A little over year ago, we were working on the

Tangle It! Planner

and we wanted to have little cute owls spread

throughout the planner. 

So. I was put on owl detail.

Hahaha!

I drew about 40 of the little guys.

I have been wanting to do something with the 

artwork from that project,

and this week in 

Zentangle All Around (Facebook)

our art journaling prompt is

Owls.

 (As I make this post,

Zac Brown Band is singing

Roots

on the player.

Reminds me of this little tree!)

I began by using Lindy's Stamp Gang inks

to make the backgrounds.

I trimmed out some of my favorite owls and gently watercolored them. And that means I used as little water as possible because I tangled these on cardstock.  I also picked out a couple Tim Holtz' pieces of ephemera to use. Actually, tangling a tree was a thought I had the night before and all but forgot. So, it had to come after some of the pieces had already been glued into place. 
This spread came together fairly easily. And now I have a fun storage place for some of my original art from the book.
