I Spy With My Little Eye ... Something with Wings

I was delighted to be invited to be a Guest Designer for Ellie's 'I Spy With My Little Eye' challenge.  The theme this time is 'Something with Wings'.  I decided to use this cute little owl on my card. 

The owl is a Cottage Cutz 'Owl' die cut which I cut from a snippets of brown card.  I used a dark brown Promarker to colour the branch.  I added two tiny white circles for the eyes and a black pupil.  The background is Cheery Lynn 'French Lattice Small Frame' die cut, layered on a plain white piece of card.  The green mats are patterned paper from The Range.  The sentiment is raised up on foam pads.  Everything, apart from the card base was snippets, so I'll be sharing my card over the Playground. (Totally forgot to take a photo of the snippets this time.)

I am joining in the following challenges:
