Autumn Birthday featuring Outrageous Owls

Hi all and happy Thursday!  It's Tara and today I am sharing a birthday card that is perfect for all the fall babies out there!  I used one of my all time favorite Mint Owl Studio stamp sets - Outrageous Owls!  And, of course, some Antique Gold heat embossing on kraft card stock!  That is rapidly becoming my signature move of the season. 

To create a patterned background I used the adorable little acorn in the stamp set to create my own patterned paper for the background using heat embossing. I die cut a circle for a shaker window and used some adorable autumn patterned paper from Echo Park for the background.  The color scheme from that patterned paper is what I used as my inspiration to color my cute little owl.  

I used Prismacolors on kraft card stock to color him in and then fussy cut him out.  Once my shaker was filled with amazing sequins  that matched my theme I was ready to pop the little owl and sentiment banner up with some foam tape.  I added some sequins to the outside and this card was done!

Thank you so much for joining me today to see how you can create a birthday card to coordinate with the season!  See you again soon!  Bye!
