Owl Fathers Day Card

This card is for my Dad for Fathers day. He loves Owls so I thought my new Owl punch from Stampin up would be perfect to use on his card.



I made it one evening in the terrible light in our living room In daylight the following day it looked greener than I had first thought. I would have used a different backing paper if I was making it again, not that I ever make the same card twice. I'm sure he'll like it though.





I used a Stampin up Owl punch, papers from my stash (I bought the Owl paper about 18 months go from a NEC craft show and finally found a use for it..lol). The Owl charm is from a Trimmie friend (thanks Mia). I've added some brown spotty ribbon from my stash and some gems my Mum gave me last weekend (thanks Mum). The Dad letter are rub ons and I've stamped 'happy fathers day' on the die cut heart.


I'd like to enter this into challenges at:
Come and get it challenges - Fathers Day

    fab card Sharon , the owls all look super cute. It was good that you managed to get the papers and the charm too… there's no mistaking that he loves owls :) the backing paper looks fine.
    Its lovely to see you using your SU punch too. I see that you have seen the animals on my blog, 3 out of the 4 i have used the owl punch for. If you want to know which other punches i used for the shapes let me know. I didn't list them as they were all SU ones and I know not everyone has them.
    your other FD and and tatty ted cards are gorgeous too. i haven't had time to enter any challenges in ages. never mind lol
    have a good week
    hugs rozzy xx
