The inside panel adds depth by layering the Treeline Die, cut from patterned paper, over the top of another patterned paper...all coordinating with the patterned papers from my little owl babies. Here's a tip...trace the outside edge of the owl die on contrasting cardstock and cut out. It is a bit of fussy cutting, but a fairly simple shape to cut. Then you can just adhere the paper pieces from the die cuts. Oh, and another tip...as you die cut each baby owl, place each tiny piece on a strip of removable tape to keep them together, and doing this with each owl. This makes it soooo much easier to keep all the pieces together. It is also really helpful to place a panel of Double Sided Mounting Paper on the back of the panel of patterned paper that you are cutting your owls from BEFORE die cutting them. Just peel off the adhesive backing and adhere each piece without dealing with messy glues.
Before you move on to the team's blogs this week, just thought I'd share a silly riddle for you...
Where do you buy baby owls? At the OWLET store!! Hee hee.

OMG, I saw your card and immediately fell in love with it! The window, the stencil behind the window on the inside of the card and, best of all, the little owls perched in the window. Classic Pam style card...so fun!!!
WOOOt!!! LOVE these little guys you made and using three different dies on one card? I bet you were an overachiever in kindergarten...LOL!!!
What a great idea to trace the outside of the owl die! I will definately be using that technique!
