Gr. 12 Media Art Culminating Projects

Courtney Heyman has had a love for owls all semester (and for likely much longer).  After designing her owl themed cards before Christmas she decided to continue with that theme  for her culminating project.  She had her owl design made into a stamp and created everything needed for an owl themed party.  She created invitations, place cards, and stationary digitally, and hand stamped wrapping paper, gift bags, and ribbons.
