BugABoo BirdGrad Owl Card

I started out with a simple sketch card in mind but ended up with much more and glad I continued enhancing it. I used masking with the Cricut grad hats & Tim Holtz Distress Ink. I used a Sizzix Decorative Strip 13" Cutting Pad to only cut a portion of the oval for a flap to allow for looking at the sentiment inside the card.

Cricut cartridge: Something to Celebrate  1/2" Grad Hats - cut using white cardstock
digi: BugABoo Bird Gr Graduating Owl
ink:  Memento Tuxedo Black

   cardstock - white, yellow
Sizzix: Decorative Strip 13" Cutting Pad
Spellbinder: die - Nest - Classic Oval, Floral Oval
stamp: Scrappy Moms School Days - sentiment - inside card
Stampin' Up: punch - label Bracket

   chipped sapphire (masking background), 
   squeezed lemonade (on Spellbinder Floral Oval)
tool: MISTI
