This card was for my Auntie and Uncle as they recently lent us their cottage in Wales for a holiday. In one of the trees next to the cottage was a nesting box with baby owls in it - so I had to make an owl thank you card! I used the sketch from My Paper World but only used one flower as they are so big. The paper is from a new papermania retro stack and I love the colours. The owl was cut with a new sizzix die - i think he is my favourite. The leaf was cut with a very old sizzix die and I used antique linen distress ink to tone everything down a little. The thank you stamping was done with part of a circular stamp which came free with a magazine ages ago.
