So, as many of you already know it's Susi's Birthday today!! Happy Birthday, Susi. Have a fab day, girlfriend and I hope you like what I have created for you.   This was so much fun.  I got these ideas off of Pinterest.  If you havent visited Pinterest, you should.  It's pack will ideas, tips and everything in between.  Check it out http://pinterest.com/.

Here is my first project:  Owl Bags

This idea I got from Lisa on Pinterest.

I used regular paper bags.  Cute out orange paper with my spellbinders classic scallop circles.  Punched out the eyes with my Creative memories Punches and Circle system (which I have I had forever).  Used some music note paper for the body. Cut the the paper bag for the eyebrows.  Very simple to make and cute too.

Next project:  Owl Pillow Boxes

I got this idea from Pinterest too but I didn't pin it so I can't give credit where credit is due.  I'm so sorry.  I did follow a youtube video to make a the pillow boxes.  Here is the Link. 

I made the box out of a 4x4 piece of patterned paper and if you follow the above link it tells you that you can make them from any size which I love.  Punched out everything from my many punches and how cute is this.  Too Cute.  You can add little treats in these boxes for Valentines or favors for party.

Next stop is Vero - http://goldenmomentssometimes.blogspot.com

Thanks everyone for stopping by and celebrating Susi's Birthday with us today. 

Hugs, Friday
