Little Charlotte

**Please scroll down for the Lil' Inkers Designs Blog Hop**

"Little Charlotte she's as pretty as the angels when they sing. I can't believe I'm out here on her front porch in this swing, Just a swingin' (swingin'). Yeah, and we'll be swingin'. (swingin'). Yes, we'll be swingin'. (swingin')." Swingin' by John Anderson.


So my thought process sometimes goes like this: I saw the stick, I saw the cute owl, and I saw the cute owl just a swingin'. I've named her Little Charlotte. (Swingin' was one of the first country songs I ever listened to in my memory!) I had a card featured on the Paper Smooches Blog yesterday for the August Paper Smooches Guest Designer. The owl came from Spookalicious, but nothing spooky about Little Charlotte today. The wings were stamped twice and fussy cut in order to grab the swing and not fall off. The sentiment is from Word Up.

So much fun these Paper Smooches Stamps are!
