Hoo Hoo

Happy Friday! We are in the middle of a big winter snowstorm here. This is not anything new for us but for some reason it is making headline news. We have had a lot more snow than this before. I would much rather it to be 70 and sunny. Hopefully it will stop soon and melt fast. Emilia loves it though. This is a photo she took of the snow outside our front door this morning after she shoveled it.

Today I want to share this:

I have been wanting to make an owl gift box for awhile now and finally got the chance. I stared by creating a pillow box SVG file then cutting it out with My Silhouette using Kraft cardstock. I covered the box with scallop strips cut from patterned paper in Amy Jaz designs Fresh Start kit. When I was done with that I made the buttons for the eyes using an image from the Delightful Doilies stamp set and the button dies, then I covered them in Glossy Accents. The crown is made from an SVG file in SCAL covered in angel dust glitter and tiny pearls added to the tops. Pink Pom Pom Trim and Autumn rose satin ribbon was tied around the owls middle. Another hand stamped button and faux stitching finishes it off. I think these would make great gift card holders or party favors. That's it for now. I hope the rest of your weekend is a good one and as always thanks for stopping by.
