Here's the closed view of my card for this month's WishRAK Monthly Card Contest - Category #1 - For the Love of a Child. Thanks to sgalley (Sandy) for this adorable owl image.
I needed a card to hold some cash for a child's graduation gift, so I followed this great sketch challenge. Forums at Splitcoaststampers
My card base is Chocolate Chip followed by some Bella Birds dsp. I cut the edge of the top fold with my Zig Zig decorative-edged scissors. I colored the owl with SU inks and a Blender Pen, cut him out and adhered him to Textured Baja Breeze cs with Dimensionals. I went out into the backyard and found this slender stick and tucked it under his talons. I then added the GOOD LUCK rub-on. I created the tab with a 3/4" Chocolate Chip circle that I cut in half. I added just a small dot of glue to it so I could still tuck the Baja Breeze cs in it to hold the card closed.

Regina, thanks for all the info on how you made this card. It really is awesome. LOVE that owl, the paper and that twig. I've tried using a twig before and it kept breaking. Maybe I'll try again sometime! TFS!
