Owl Bookmark Or Treat Topper Tutorial

I'm not sure what all the hype is with the owls lately but I was again ~~wasting my time~~ on Pinterest and came across these cute bookmarks. I have my monthly stamp club swap coming up and our challenge this month was to create something other than a card. So I thought I would make these and show you how easy they are too.

We only had to make one thing per person in my stamp club and that totaled 7 of us. But since these can be used as treat toppers or bookmarks I made six for everyone.

Let me break down the amount of things I had to punch out just because
it's ALOT! Oh and here's where the how-to comes in. I used a Sizzix
Top Note Die for the base and I needed 42 of them. Thank goodness for my Big Shot on that part! You can also just cut a piece of cardstock at 4 1/2 x 3 1/2.

Then you need circles (2 of each) cut at 1/4 inch, 1 inch and 1 3/8 inches. For me that amounted to 252 HAND PUNCHED CIRCLES! Ok, got a little excited but if I didn't have carpal tunnel before, I have it now. I also used a five petal flower punch and just used one petal for the beak. See the picture below for everything you need then just assemble it together. Easy peasy!

Have fun!
