Mini-Card: FUN FOR BIG AND LITTLE KIDS!
Threw this one together today, felt like making something a little bit fun :)
- It's pretty simple really:
- On white paper (I used normal copy paper), scribble with a watercolour pencil, then roughly spread the colour around with an aqua brush (or brush and water) so that you get a wash with the scribble still visible in it. Alternatively you could just use a patterned paper, it's up to you.
- Once the paper is dry, tear out an owl body shape so that the edge of the owl shows the white tear of the paper
- Tear some rough wing shapes out of newspaper or a book, create eyes with small circle punches or use googly eyes
- Glue a stick to your card and hovering just above the stick, glue your owl pieces onto the card. Draw a beak, 'feathers', ear detail, and legs onto the card
- Roughly cut out little leaves and stick them on the card around the stick to create a tree branch - I created the paper for the leaves the same way that I created the paper for the owl
- Apply your greeting however you want! I liked keeping the "torn" theme going. My greeting was simply printed from the computer and cut out.
Done!
Happy Hooting!
