Easter Owl

I saw this owl over at KB Papercraft and just had to make it! Just too cute, isn't it? This lady is so clever. The things she does with those owls!

I am going to enter this card into the A La Card Monkey Challenge, and the So Shelli Challenge.

Here is my version of the Easter Owl. I didn't have all of the punches that Kerry used, so I improvised.

I am thinking of using these owls as toppers for skinny bags of Easter eggs. Just depends how many I get made between now and then!

Here are some close ups to show the details.

Inlaid Embossing Detail

I must say that when I first saw the inlaid embossing technique, I wondered what all the fuss was about. It wasn't until I saw this post by Sarah Klass that I knew I could make it work for me and I just had to try it!
