Hooty Owl Hallowe'en Cards
Margot Potter for iLoveToCreate
Avalon has been busy as a little bee getting straight A's in her honors classes! Can you say proud mama? I can! Go Avalon! So I stepped in to whip up some fun and festive Hooty Owl Halloween cards today.
These are so easy to make and you can layer them however you please with whatever papers and embellishments you have at hand. The lenticular owl came off a panel on a Puff's tissue box, which I simply could not throw away! The other owl is a permission free Art Deco era image from Dover to which I've added text and is here for you to download if you'd like to use it. I can't resist the urge to add googly eyes whenever possible. Teens can use these for party invitations or greeting cards or even frame them for room or locker decor. Fun, fast...and fabulous!
