I made this for my son to give his nephew, Parker, for his first birthday.
Stamped the owl in archival black ink, watercoloured with zigs and fussy-cut. Created a shadow on the card front masking with a post-it note and sponging with gray ink and popped the owl over top. Die-cut the balloon, watercoloured with zigs, pressed into versamark pad and coated with iridescent embossing powder. Heat to set and then coated the balloon with glossy accents. Twine attached the balloon to the owl.
