Anyhow, this image for made for the Foil Quill in mind, so that is what I used.
I had the Cameo to draw the image with the gold foil and at the same time draw the congratulations sentiment too. Then, had the Silhouette pen to outline the foiled text. The Cameo cut the frame of the owl at the same time as the outer gold layer card. I copied the size of the centre of the owls eyes and made a circle to add to the owls eyes out of the gold card. I added it to the red card flat, as it had to be posted. The black and gold paper is glued to the base card.

I had to take the sunset on 21st August, I always like sunsets, they are so beautiful and as our bungalow faces West we are lucky to see them from our home over the mountain.
This was the first on I took
then the colour intensified and spread a little further, so a closeup was called for!
What a stunning card. Great work on the Cameo Faith and your card is unique and personal and congratulations to Cameron x

I adore your golden owl, Faith! My daughter collects owls - figurines, prints, photos, and of course, cards, since I make them for her. :-D I'll have to keep in mind doing owls in gold.
