Darice Embossing Folders


 A very good afternoon I'm back with another creation for you today using fabulous new Darice embossing folder brought to you by Crafters Companion..........watch out for Saras shows today on Create and Craft......now for those of you  who know me well will know how much i LOVE my cuttlebug and how much i adore embossing.....yip kinda obbsessed to be honest but hey that's not a back thing is it LOL anyhoo.....or should that be anyHOOT :O)


I have used WOODGRAIN 5" x 7" Embossing folder and embossed CORE'DINATIONS CARD which is another of my new loves :O) I cut out a hole with a nestie and added lighter card behind it which has also been embossed with the folder and SANDED


I punched out leaves using a Woodware punch and added this cute little fellow who I have named "HOOT" all made from CORE'DINATIONS CARD

 ~ Instructions To Make Hoot ~ 

(Any size circle can be used as long as you keep the other circles proportioned correctly)
  • Cut out circle using round nestie for body...either use a punch or smaller nestie and cut away semi-circle for top of owls head
  • Cut out a smaller circle and run it through cuttlebug with an embossing folder I chose Swiss Dots...adhere to bottom part of first circle let it dry, turn over and trim off excess
  • Cut out 2 even smaller circles for eyes and add two small black circle (I used a punch from Stampin Up for this part)

I'm entering this into ~

Very effective - especially with the hole for the little owl & the way you've given him such an expression with your placing of those eyes.
