Happy Birthday

Tomorrow is my dad's 60th birthday. Holy crap!! I can't believe my dad is 60 - I must be getting old too!! ;>)

He came over for dinner today, and I made some of his favorites - meatloaf, mashed potatoes, green beans, and gob cake (<-- yummy!!). We had a nice time.

Here's the card that I made for him. I just love this owl stamp. He's so versatile. I added a teeny birthday hat to him from my Stampendous Changito the Monkey clear set. I love how the size makes the owl look even bigger!!


Details:
Stamps - Hero Arts Big Owl; Stampendous Changito the Monkey (clear set)
Paper - Soft Sky, DP (striped & red - double sided) - Cloud 9 Design by Fiskars, white, glossy black
Ink - Black, Brushables markers
Accessories - Pewter brads, curly clip, computer generated sentiment (Bookworm font)
Thanks for stopping by!

That's a very cute stamp, I like how you colored his feathers, he looks very happy to have all those different shades of brown and cream.

That is a lot of colouring. You did a great job on the shading of the feathers.
