Have An OWLy Birthday!

Welcome to Wednesday! It's time for another Paper Pretties Weekly Challenge! For today's post I get to share with you the card I made for our next challenge, issued by Jana! Today we are not only sharing all of our creations, but we are also having a Happy Birthday Celebration for our wonderful Frances! We are kicking things off at Christie's blog, so if you haven't started there head on over, if you are joining me from Jana's blog then you found the right place!

We are all sharing with you our cards for this OWL challenge! That's right this week's challenge in honor of Frances' Birthday is to create a card using Owls! You will have until March 30th to try this one out for yourself! For my project today I decided to ink up Lady Sophia for a sort of royal birthday wish headed Frances' way! I used this great paper from the Green Stack that DCWV cam our with, it includes this cute DP with this fabulous owl on it, perfect for this particular birthday card! I decided that this piece of DP would not only be my inspiration for today's card, but I would use the piece as a background too! So I pulled the colors from the patterned piece of DP and use the Owl as a part of the card! I just love this cute little Owl almost as much as I love this Sophia! You will notice that we are featuring two great stamp sets this week, and not only are Make A Wish and Lady Sophia being featured, but if you decide to order either of these featured stamp sets this week they are both on sale for 20% off the regular price! So after you get your inspiration for the week, you may just want to hop over to the Paper Pretties Store and see where is takes you! I can't wait to see what the other ladies decided to create, check out the other Pretties Girl's creations:
