Well OWL Be Blog Hop!!

Welcome to the Highly Anticipated "Well OWL Be
it's Heather Lynn's 1st Blog Hop!!


If you have arrived here from my sweet and talented friend Heather E, then you are in the right place!! If you are joining me from your dashboard, or reading via email, please be sure to click HERE to start at the beginning.

Today is the day that Heather Lynn's love for everything owls is showcased through the creative talent of her friends at each blog hop stop!! If you love owls as much as Heather does, you won't want to miss a single project. Each person in the hop has dedicated their time to creating any project they wanted as long as it included owls :) There are some wonderful prizes up for grabs along the way, too!!

*** GRAND PRIZE *** 


Heather Lynn, the Hostess with the Mostest, is offering up this fabulous grand prize to one lucky follower. In order to be eligible to win, you must:
  1. Be a follower of each blog on the hop
  2. Leave a comment at each blog on the hop
  3. Once you have finished, please return to Heather Lynn's blog and leave a comment stating you have done both

For my project today, I created an owl themed gift set...a card, necklace and gift bag.


The base of the card is a Spellbinders Label One. The next layer is a Label Thirteen, embossed with the Tim Holtz Wood Grain embossing folder. The owl on the branch is from Hoot N Holler, cut at 3". The tag is a Spellbinders Nested Pennant die, stamped with "Love Yoo" from K Andrew Designs Owly Hoo stamp set. This set is absolutely perfect for all of your owl projects, and more!!


Click HERE to purchase your own set!!


The base of the necklace is from Michaels. I stamped the owl from Owly Hoo in black onyx Versamark ink and embossed it with copper embossing powder. I added crystals to the corners and filled it in with Glossy Accents.


For the gift bag, I used Spellbinders Grand Scalloped Rectangles for the base and a Grand Rectangle as the next layer. The Owl is also from Hoot N Holler. I wanted it to look like the owl was in the tree, so the handle is covered with Spellbinders leaves.


The owl is the flap of the bag, secured with velcro.


The Grand Rectangle is also embossed with the Wood Grain embossing folder. The banner is a Spellbinders tag. "You're a hoot" is from Owly Hoo.

I have blog candy!!


All you have to do to be eligible to win this cute set of Heidi Grace stamps (with an adorable owl!!) and a 6x6 My Mind's Eye All Spice paper stack is:
