A Wise Old Owl


A birthday card for a friend.  The inside of the card says  "The Older, the Wiser".  The owl is made with the SENTIMENTALS cartridge and given a little glitter on his chest, wings and eyes.  The squares with the leaves and the corner designs are cut from the STORYBOOK cartridge.  Two small brown buttons, with shanks are added to the corners.  The shanks help to give more dimension to the buttons.  The pale yellow base paper is from Colorbok.  The rest of the paper is from K&Company.
