Materials:
Cardstock - Prism
Owl stamp � Inkadinkado
Ancient Page stamp pad - Clearsnap
Fluid Chalk stamp pads � Clearsnap
Clear Paper Glaze � Aleene�s�/Tulip
Leaf punch � Punch Bunch

Directions:
1. The card base was created from the white Prism cardstock. This was folded and the outside edges were inked with the Fluid Chalk stamp pads.
2. The owl was stamped on a scrap piece of the Prism cardstock using black ink. This was cut out. The edges of this were also inked with a Fluid Chalk stamp pad and the owl was coated with the Paper Glaze.
3. 1� squares were cut from three shades of the Prism cardstock and the edges of each of these were inked with the Fluid Chalk stamp pads. The squares were glued in place on the front of the card.
4. Three leaf sprigs were punched from these same colors of cardstock and they were added on the front of the card.
5. The owl was added with foam tape for added dimension.

Products Used: Prism Papers, Offray Ribbon, brad by Spare Parts (PaperStudio), Making Memories Paint, I Kan Dee chalks, White Souflee Pen, Tim Holtz Distress Ink by Ranger, Background stencil by Plaid, Luminarte Twinkling H2O�s, and MW Gigi Font Instructions: I stenciled the background on the green Paper with Distress Ink. I drew a pattern for the Santa, tore the edges of all of the pieces except the face and hat. I also tore the beard. Then I made small tears around the edges of the hat band, the words, the ball at the end of the hat, the moustache, and the words. I sponged the edges of the pieces with the Distress ink then ran a stencil brush over the edges to make the small tears show up. I chalked the face, painted the eyes, high-lighted the different areas with the Twinkling H20�s and the Souflee pen. Then I put it all together and added a ribbon to the hatband.
