I chose to make a card based on one of my button pins. I love these button cards and knew that I had this stamp set with the guy in the starched shirt that mimicked the shirts on the cards. I did add a couple of buttons on the bottom of my card to include the button aspect of my inspiration. I decided to have him checking out an owl in the tree because I recently went on a walk with my niece and we were able to observe an owl in its nest. I'm going to send her this card.

Such a rare treat for you and your niece to see an owl in its nest! What a great idea to create this card inspired by that fun walk.
