Used Tim Holtz Mini Owl die. Cut the Owl using grungeboard. A tip that you should know if you do not know already is to use tape as in clear packing tape & wax paper for the Tim Holtz dies that have small areas to cut. You put the clear packing tape over the die side that cuts not the backside which in mini case is the magnetic side and use wax paper on top of the die before you place the material that you are cutting. The tape & wax paper help in releasing the small cut out pieces from the die.
Used TH Crackle Paint on the grungeboard after cutting and allow to dry. Used TH Distress Ink & Adirondack Metallics Dabbers on the Owl.
Stamped K Andrew Designs Owly Hoo Sentiments sentiment.
Recycled a Panera Bread tea cup cardboard hugger piece behind the sentiment tag.
