A cocktail on a tropical island for whooooo?

A cocktail on a tropical island for whooooo?

Its challenge time again over at JAI and also over at a new challenge site Stampin' Up! only challenge I thought I would think outside the square and use the card sketch and make a box with my BIG SHOT machine.  While I was at it I created this cute little hula owl. Am so loving that owl punch at the moment, Here is the sketch:



I used the palm tree where the ribbon detail is supposed to go, and the owl is the butterflies.


Deets:
Stamp set: Cheers to you, printed petals for the parasol, sanded
ink pads: regal rose, crumb cake
cardstock: Whisper white, baja breeze, Chocolate chip, certainly celery, regal rose, basic black,tangerine tango
Punches: Owl punch, small oval punch, circle scallop punch, 1/2" circle punch, modern label punch
Other: twine, 2 way glue pen, dazzling diamonds, white gel pen,big shot machine, fancy favour box.

If you would like to learn how to make this then email me here for a class or workshop or alternatively you can purchase the items to recreate this project from me wherever you are in Australia - I will have Stampin' up! deliver straight to your door.

Happy Stamping :)
