Hi All!
The holidays wouldn’t be complete without making a Christmas card with my owl punch! I did the same owl Santa from last year, but then I added a couple of reindeer. I saw this card fold in my Paper Crafts magazine and thought it would be perfect with the owls. I love it because it also opens up like a regular card so you can write on the inside.
Hope you’re having a wonderful holiday so far!!
Darlene

Love your interactive “easy fold” Owl card, Darlene! My friend and I made a variation of this (we don’t have the owls, boo hoo). This card design has a big WOW factor, but it does not take forever to finish (my kind of card!!) Thanks so much for sharing your design with us!
hugs,
Laura

K, I realize this is really really late, but I have to tell you how much I adore this card!!! From the way you did the hills, to the background, to the owls and puffy white stuff – I am pinning this one for use this Christmas. I have lots of friends that LOVE LOVE LOVE owls 🙂
Please keep doing what you do, I am inspired all the time! Love the new look too 😉

This is too cute – I’ve started looking for a stamp/punch set similar to the retired set you used..could please tell me what size is the snowflake?
Darlene DeVries
Hi Tarsh, it’s about 2 inches in diameter.

A-D-O-R-E-A-B-L-E! I sure want to make one similar. I’ve seen different “critters” pretend that they were the Easter bunny, and this little owl just makes me laugh!
