3 Flowers, 2 Butterflies and 1 Bird. Whew!

Silly little card!  I made this card for Create: blog's challenge this week that challenged us to create something with 3 flowers, 2 butterflies and 1 bird.  Wow!  This was tricky!  I tried hard to come up with a design that wouldn't look like I just threw a bunch of stuff on a page and called it good.  I thought the little owl peeking out of a tree would be adorable, and the butterflies and flowers fell into place. 
Finished card size is 5 1/2"x4 1/4"
The sweet little owl, buttons, butterflies and sentiment die cuts are from Jillibean Soup's Hearty Barley collection.  The wood grain paper is also from the same collection.  The yellow and white twine is also from Jillibean Soup.  I die cut the tree using Cricut's Stretch Your Imagination cartridge and manipulated it in the new CCR software.  The cloud paper is from MME and the green paper and flower stems are from Echo Park. The pearl embellishments are from KaiserCraft

Smile!  It's Thursday!
