Monthly Inspiration Post for Buckwells Crafty Challenge - Things With Wings

This is my monthly inspiration card for Buckwells Crafty Challenge.  Sadly, it's my last inspiration post as the challenge is closing at the end of this month once the current challenge has finished.  I've really enjoyed being part of the team - a big thank you to Lozzy and the other ladies for having me on board.

Our last challenge is 'things with wings' and I've kept to that theme for today's card.  I've used the same digi stamp as I did for my card for the challenge post - it's the very cute 'Mr and Mrs Owl' from this month's sponsor Sweet Pea Stamps.  You can find the digi here on their website.

I've made a patchwork background using squares of paper and then used red and kraft paper to layer the card.
