Owls are amazing birds, and Stampin’ Up! has created a stamp set, Adorable Owls, just for the 2023 Sale-A-Bration period.  Here is a card we made at my February stamp club meeting that not only used this stamp set, but was an easy-to-make fancy fold as well.  I used the delightful Happy Forest Friends 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper from the 2022/2023 Annual Catalog.  Sadly, this paper will be retiring, so if you like it I recommend that you buy it – why not during Sale-A-Bration so you can earn exclusive free product?
