SU240 Greetings of the Season Owl Card

This Santa Owl was based on a card I found online using the Stampin Up Owl Punch.   It is so cute and a great addition to my Christmas cards.  To make him, I punched out his feet and very little of his chest in black, aligned and glued his white vest in place on the black.  I punched out a red owl, removed the feet then glued the vest and black feet to the red owl.  I cut a triangle for his hat about ½” wide by 1” tall, topped it with a flower pompom and used the horizontal slot punch to give him fur across the bottom of his hat.  I gave him a black belt, punched a ¼” circle from gold cardstock then centered the ½” circle punch over that for his belt.  Lots of fiddly little detail, but well worth it!!

SU234 Graduation Owl Card

 

Another idea from Pinterest!  The card front was embossed with SU's Square Lattice Embossing Folder.  Sponged the edges of most everything then pounced the script with black ink as well.  I cut the diamond part of the grad hat about 1.25” wide by 5/8” tall and used a 1 1/4" circle punch on a ½” wide strip of card stock to get the curved bottom portion of the hat.  To make the diploma I cut a 1 1/4" wide X 1" tall piece of typing paper and just rolled it up.  Adhere it together and tie a linen thread knot around it and glue in place.
