Motley Owl Blog Hop

Today is the day that we reveal our designs using Erin Prais-Hintz, little motley owl pendants.  These little owls are do adorable and each one has there very own personalities.  I thought that mine was saying who me, like it was caught with her/his pants or feathers down.  I was short on time this week, but I didn't want to miss out on today, so my design is very simple.  I thought though with the pendant being so beautiful I could get away with it. 


Thank you very much to Lorelei for hosting this blog hop and picking my name to participate!!  Thank you to Erin for offering her lovely owls for all of us to participate.  Please be sure to check out the other participants.
