Last weekend we attended the graduation party of a cousin who had just finished her nursing school. A while back I had seen a sample where someone had used the owl punch the owl punch as a nurse and have wanted to try it ever since so this was the perfect occasion. I have to say, these owls turned out to be super adorable!! They were so cute I could' t make just one… I made a bunch. One was for the Congrats card for our cousin. I used a the "congratulations" sentiment from a retired set… I tend to hang onto most of my word sets when they retire… you never know when you will need a certain word or greeting! I also used some retired paper from my stash, paired with so saffron and crumb cake card stock. The branch is cut out using the Little leaves sizzlit die.
Then I decided they would work well for some "Get well" cards too… so I made one like this:
I also have been making a few clothespin magnets so I added some owls onto a few of those as well - what a perfect gift for anyone who is sick or works as a nurse!!
stamps: Various retired sentiments
ink: basic black
paper: so saffron, whisper white, crumb cake, various designer paper (retired)
Big Shot: little leaves sizzlit die, square lattice embossing folder, houndstooth embossing folder
other: Owl builder punch, itty bitty shapes punch pack, dimensionals
