Owl Goes Back to School - LNS Challenge 186

Challenge 186 is back to school time.

One of my grandson's is starting kindergarten and the other Grade 1.  I made each of them an Owl card - of course both are different, but the idea is the same.
This card is a CASE from Maria Pane.  I changed a few things but essentially the card is very similar.


Technique:
Owl:  Owl builder punch.  Whisper White was sponged around the outside of the body so the owl could be seen better against the black background.
Books:  Word Window punch.  Lines and word made with Basic Black marker
Apple:  From Fruits & Blossoms stamp set.  Inked with markers and then cut out
Numbers:  Junior Alphabet die.  The bar under the 3 was made from the letter 1; the plus sign from 2 letter I's
Stamp: Fruit And Flower
Ink: SU markers (Basic Black, Chocolate brown, Real Red, Gumball Green, Whisper White
Papers: Basic Black, Whisper White, Early Espresso, Real Red, Tangerine Tango, Gumball Green, Bashful Blue, Very Vanilla, retired designer paper
Accessories: Owl builder punch, Word Window Punch, Junior Alphabet die
