I still have lots of product left from my Birds of a Feather kit so both of my cards today are from the kit. You can still pick up your kit for only $29.00 here!

My first card uses the adorable little Owl digi stamp and sentiment from Whimsy Haven which comes in the kit. All products used are from the kit except the branch. I also entered this card into this week's challenge at Wee Memories (paper piecing).

My next card also uses the digi Whimsy Haven images that come with the kit. Everything on my card is from the kit except the black cardstock base and white cardstock for the inside.
