Hi everyone!
This card holds a very special place in my heart. As someone who grew up with the Winnie the Pooh stories—gifted to me by a dear teacher friend of my parents—anything connected to the 100 Acre Wood instantly brings back that cozy, childhood wonder. So when I saw Spellbinders’ Classic Pooh Collection, I couldn’t resist creating something inspired by the characters I’ve always loved.

This sweet owl (clearly inspired by the ever-wise Owl himself) is perched and ready to celebrate. I paired him with a warm, golden background, a few shiny sequins, and a sentiment that feels straight out of a hand-addressed letter from Owl’s treehouse.

Design Highlights 📜
- 🦉 Charming layered owl – Perched with a pencil and scroll, full of personality and poise.
- 🌅 Golden ink-blended background – A soft glow that hints at storytelling at sunset.
- 💌 Sentiment with vintage charm – “Many happy returns of the day!” feels so Owl.
- ✨ Gold sequin accents – Just a hint of shine to make it feel extra special.
- 🌿 Branch detail – Because of course he needs the perfect perch!

This card is a little nod to the stories that sparked my imagination as a child—and still warm my heart as an adult. 💛.
I hope you have a wonderfully creative day!
