WT582 = to honor Edward Lear's birthday, Sabrina asked us to have an owl/cat or both on our cards for today. This is in honor of Lear's "The Owl and the Pussycat" poem.
This has to be the quickest and easiest card I've ever made. Besides gluing the panels together and printing the sentiment, all I did was color the eyes yellow. It will be a b'day card for one of my older "Geezer" male friends.

That image is wonderful! Adding the color to his eyes just makes him pop, and is a definite winner for a birthday card!

Fun and fabulous, the quizzical expression is perfect to go with the sentiment. It's a great masculine card, Sallie - and it reminds me a lot of some of the old Japanese or Chinese prints my aunt has round her house.

Owls are incredible birds; their forward facing eyes give them a range of expression other birds lack. All in OUR imaginations of course! :-) A wonderful pairing of image and sentiment here Sallie! Perfect!

This IS a great image and you have quite the knack for finding and recognizing them Sallie. Doesn't matter how easy, you have an eye for fabulous; and, speaking of fabulous eyes...
