Playing With the Two Step Owl Punch

Well how cute is this little owl? I used some Basic Rhinestones for the eyes. It is a little tricky gluing the tiny pieces together for the owl but so worth it 'cause these are just too stinkin' cute! I used tweezers and Tombow™ Liquid Glue. Another demonstrator had a great idea; she placed a dob of Tombow Liquid Glue on a lid and used a toothpick to put the glue on the paper. This is the first time I have used Poppy Parade, one of the new In-Colors. I have to admit that I like it more now that I have actually made something with it.

Another great product I used on this card is the new Cork Sheets. I was pleasantly surprised at how thick and nice these are. I used my Big Shot™ and the Top Note die and simply cut it in half with the Tabletop Paper Trimmer and adhered it to a piece of Chocolate Chip card stock that was cut with the Top Note die. Again I used Tombow Liquid glue. The buttons are the clear Bitty Buttons with some Poppy Parade paper glued on them with Crystal Effects™.

The sentiment is from a retired Stampin' Up! set.
