Stamp-N-Nuggets and We're Lovin' It!

Owl for You! Isn't this just stinkin' cute?!?

We just this last weekend held our quarterly meeting with StampAttics in Galesburg, IL 61401, just minutes away from Abingdon, IL 61410, where I live. Woo-Hoo! What a meeting! We usually always hold a swap, but this time, along with our regular card swap, we could also participate in an Anything-But-A-Card Big Shot Swap! Here is what I made to swap. A BIG thanks to Charlotte H for the really cute 3-D idea!

This is one of those really simple projects with NO stamping, just crafting!  All done with die cuts and punching.

Items used:

Card Stock:  Really Rust, Kraft

Die Cuts:   Scallop Circle, Scallop Circle #2, Top Note, Tulipe

Punches:   3/4" Circle (eyes), 3/4" Square (nose)

Accessories:   Big Shot, Kraft Taffeta Ribbon, 3" x 3" Post-It Note

Oh, and if you check out his tummy, you will find this to be a Post-It Note Holder. How stickin' cute is that? Add a strip or two of magnet and you can put this on your frig for a quick note to write!

I'm telling you... you need to be a Stamp-N-Nugget... We're lovin' it!
