This card is for my Qld great-nephew's 21st birthday. Yuk...great-nephew makes me sound soooo OLD LOL!! His mum, my niece, is only 10 years younger than me...we're more like sisters :) When her & her sister (who is only 8 years younger than me!) were younger they used to take great delight in introducing me to people as their Aunty Lynne...just to raz me lol! They still do it sometimes :)
The challenge at JAI this week is a colour challenge of River Rock, Choc Chip & Wild Wasabi...great boy colours and perfect to use with my gorgeous little SU owl punch, which I've had for a couple of months and not used :( I LOVE owls and had to have this as soon as it was available in Aus :) Bad that it's taken me so long to put it to use!
Here's the card:
and I made an envelope to go with it, with another owl:
On the inside I created a pocket to hold his birthday money and the greeting. I've seen some wonderful ideas using the owl punch...must find some more time to sit and play with him :)
Thanks for looking....have a wonderful day :)

What a beautiful card. I love the greeting you have used too! Thanks for playing at JAI.
This is gorgeous, Lynne! (Is it okay for a 21st card to be 'gorgeous'??!!) Love everything about it ... and am particularly taken with the leaves on the tree. Too cute.
This is SO cute! I especially love your owls... they have such adorable expressions!
Well, I love owls so I really LOVE your card. TFP.
Fancy missing this one! Love your owl's expression, your clever sentiment & the cute branch you've cut. :)
