Owl with a Punch…

by ministamper

This gorgeous card (if I do say so myself) was a happy mistake, my original thought was to emboss the woodgrain background stamp with clear embossing powder, but after stamping with the versamark I accidentally grabbed the heat and stick powder.

Now those of you who are Stampin’ Up! fans will say that was an easy mistake because the packaging is very similar, but I actaully keep my clear embossing powder in a large plastic container for ease of use, so i’m guessing this is how the card was supposed to look, anyway back to the story, after I poured the heat and stick powder I said to myself ‘what am I going to do’, then I remembered we now have a chocolate glitter in the Fine Supernova set (luckily I bought that LOL…) so I finished off the ‘tree’ in the chocolate glitter and was ‘very happy’ with the results, I even got a comment from my hubby on this card (now that’s saying something).

I used our new Two Step Owl Punch to make the cute little owl.
