Flutterby is back!

It is August and that means that the Flutterby Challenge blog is back and ready to go. We enjoyed our summer and hope that ya'll did too. Our first challenge of this month is an easy one: Any thing goes as long as it has wings. We thought this was a good way to bring back the fun since it is a popular one with ya'll.

For my card I decided to do just what the challenge suggested and use something other than a butterfly. With school getting ready to start back up and fall on its way, I decided to use a cute owl for my card. He is from PTI's Wise Owl set and the branch and leaves are from PTI's Take a Bough. I paper pieced the owls body and wings with paper some old Basic Grey paper I had laying around. The card base background and the background for the owl was from Basic Grey's Basics White pad to add to the school feeling.
