Here is a picture of the punches I used, as well as the miscellaneous "parts". I used the smallest size circle nestabilities die for the white part of the owl eye. The other punches used include:1. 1/2" SU circle punch (BLACK eyes)
2. Boho Blossoms (beak in banana from the 6 pointed star -- I took a straight edge and lined it up with a single part of the flower to cut the nose.
3. 1 3/8 inch SU circle punch (Regal Rose (after I had already punched the hearts) and Red body underneath the hearts layer.
4. Photo Corner punch - SU
5. Round Tab punch SU
6. Martha Stewart Heart Confetti punch (in the general area, not a Valentine exclusive!)
I was excited to have FINALLY found a use for my MS confetti heart punch! Punch the hearts out FIRST, then cut out the 1 3/8" circle around it for the tummy. Use the opposite color with the same size punch to go underneath.
Here is a picture of the owl assembled, next an unassembled version to see the punches used:
I altered the card that inspired me and made the little red owl a little pal. He looked lonely without a girlfriend! Here is the completed card with a gift set mug from Target.
Here is a close up of just the card... The sentiment is a "DUH- Tori" moment--- I thought it said "thanks, i OWL you one, maybe two"--- which made complete sense with this card. After it was completely made, I noticed it said OWE. The sentiment and hearts are from the level 3 hostess set "Goody Goody Gumdrops" and since it was already on there, I figured it looked cute and it was tacked down, so I went with it!
"Hoo-Hoo"pe you have a great day!! :) (SCROLL DOWN TO SEE MY OTHER POST from today!)
