ellenzilla's animation and what happened to owl #1


last month we had a giveaway for our readers to win an animated button for their blog or website. the winner was the very talented photographer ellen from ellenzilla. this is what we came up with, the animation includes her blog header design and features two recent photographs. 
it was a pleasure working with you, ellen!




we have a new owl in our shop. the first owl was purchased and flew to california to enjoy the endless sunshine over there. at least that's what i told the owl to make our goodbyes easier :)  well, poor little owl got bruised on the way and one eye got crushed. quite disappointing. i imagine it looking like a winking owl now (it inspired me to make the next one wink). i really thought the bubble wrap would protect it well. long story short, i made a new owl to replace the first. i got word that this one made it over safely. i wrapped the package up so well that i'm convinced even a mail truck running over it couldn't have hurt the owl!

oh, poor owl, i wonder what the post did to the envelope, that is weird that it broke despite of the bubble wrap!

That animation button is great.

And I'm sorry for the "injured" owl, too. Sweet of you to make another one instead.
