A pair of Little Owls




A few days ago I went to a workshop, run by my friend Jacqueline, where we learnt how to make patchwork paper. I have lots of lovely scraps of SU paper and thought this was a brilliant idea.  The backing paper on this card was made from bits of Nursery Nest paper.  I matted and layered the paper and then made the little owls, using the owl punch also from SU.  I added some googly eyes to make them stand out and embossed the greeting on a circle of card inked with Lucky Limeade.Simply Stamping
