Owl Card Make & Take

The End of Summer Stamp Bazaar I held this past Saturday was a success! I had a number of people through. Here is the card that I had out for everyone to make.

I just love this little owl. He's made using the new 2-step owl punch from the 2010/2011 Idea Book & Catalog. The "tree" is made using a strip of Soft Suede card stock that has been textured using the Sizzix Big-Shot and the Texture Plates kit #4. The leaves are made using the Little Leaves Sizzlit (also to be used with the Big-Shot). The owl is made using Chocolate Chip and Whisper White card stock and the Level 1 Hostess pack of In-Color Designer Series paper.

The card base is a 8-1/2"x11" piece of Pear Pizzazz card stock (one of the new In-Colors).

This card was made using the Black Magic technique. A simple card, but the coloring in takes a little bit more time than simply stamping in ink.

This card I cased from a fellow demonstrator, Lynn Pratt. I made a few changes by using card stock run through the crimper instead of using ribbon. I loved how simple the card was to make using a piece of card stock run through the Big-Shot and using the Top-Note die, scored and folded over along the top.

Finally, we made a card using the reflection technique. This card was also cased from Lynn. I made changes to use a 3x6-inch card and the Scallop Trim border punch along the edge, and again changing the saying.
