Materials used:
- ATC blank
- Snippets of card in white and pink/white chevron designer paper
- Mango Craft image and sentiment (from "Funny, Fatty Birds" - Aug 2024), stamped using Versafine Clair nocturne ink
- Alcohol markers used to colour image
- Using a makeup brush and Versafine Clair paradise ink, I applied a light blue background
- Overlaying my Clearly Besotted "Cloudy Day" stencil (CBTCL349) I added my "cloudy" background

I'll be entering the above make for the following challenges:-

And, strangely enough, I've another make for you today ... this could become habit forming! Ever dream in craft??? I sometimes do and woke one morning recently, with this exact card in my head ... whilst I'm sure I was dreaming in colour, I couldn't decide what colour to concentrate on so ... made one in yellow and one in blue! I give cards as part of a Christmas present for two people and, I suspect, these may form part of that gift, one for each of the recipients.
- White, 250gsm, C6 card and envelope
- Card in white, blue and textured yellow, for my card fronts, inserts and matting
- Taylored Expressions round image (from TEFS77 "Summer Afternoon") stamped using Versafine Clair cheerful and warm breeze inks, elsewhere on the card I used the border from the same set stamped in the cheerful and warm breeze inks
- MFT sentiment (from CS.748 "Mini messages and more") stamped using Versafine Clair warm breeze and twilight inks
- Stardust stickles to add some bling to the butterflies and the outline "HAPPY"
- Love to Craft - challenge No. 88 - ANYTHING GOES
- Krafty Chicks - challenge No. 788 - BIRTHDAY
- Seize the Birthday - challenge No. 314 - ANYTHING GOES + (optional) CAS WITH A STENCIL

Fab little birdie ATC and gorgeous birthday cards in the different colourways. xxx
Fabulous and fun owl image and a great idea to give cards as part of a gift - these two are great. I dream card designs occasionally too - not sure what that says for my mind 🤣
Super cute and fun card!
Thank you for joining our challenge at Stencil Fun and Triple B!

I love your pair of Clean and Simple cards, Kathy! The sentiment fit so nicely in your design. Thanks for joining us again at Seize the Birthday.
I love the expression and the lovely glossy eyes and bit of bling on the wings of that cute owl Kathy, and the the cloudy sky and pink and white chevron paper make a great background on this brilliant ATC. The two cards look so pretty in blue and then yellow using the same design and finished perfectly with the stickles on each of the sentiments. x
great ATC and love the sentiment and cards
Your fabulous ATC really made me smile, super design. I love your beautiful cards in both colourways.
