Owl gumball machine

This was made from a gumball machine bought in the Valentine section at Walmart. I have completely fallen in love with this goofy looking little owl. You will be seeing more of him throughout the week. He is so much fun to make and again is a great way to make use of every last scrap of paper. Today is the start of the SU Sale-a-bration sale and this owl stamp set is one that you can receive free for placing a $50.00 order. It is part of the Punch Bunch set and right now is only available through the sale.

I used plain white paper and stamped him in chocolate chip ink. I punched him out with the two step owl punch, punching the big eyeball circle out of white cardstock and attaching with pop dots. I added 7mm googly eyeballs and punched his heart out of Melon Mambo paper. I thought he needed some wings so I used the cupcake punch and stamp set mentioned in my earlier post. I cut the stamped cupcake in half to make the wings and added hearts from the owl punch to finish him off.

Just a reminder of the Jolly Holiday cartridge that I will be giving away on Feb. 1st.
