Thank Hoo card with Paper Moon

One of our favorite charities is the Carolina Raptor Center. They care for and rehabilitate birds of prey like eagles, hawks, and owls. I wanted to make a card to thank their staff, so naturally I thought of using an owl stamp!

 

I decided to put the owl in front of a pretty full moon, made from patterned paper. (I don't know why he looks so orange in the picture, he's really more of a golden brown than orange.) The owl is raised on pop dots for dimension.
