I had a blast making a ton of different colored Punch Art Owls and almost couldn’t wait to share the instructions with you!  This Punch Art: Heart Owl Valentine Card is a perfect Valentine for both genders, but the boys seem to gravitate towards it more than girls.

How to Make a Punch Art Owl:

It is so much easier than it looks, I promise 🙂

Step by Step Instructions:

Step One:  Gather your tools and supplies!  You will need:

  1. both sizes of the old CM heart punches (need hearts in the following sizes:  1-1/2, 1-1/4, 1, 3/4, & 1/4)
  2. the CM small circle punch
  3. the CM large star punch
  4. a heart corner punch
  5. craft tweezers
  6. fine line glue
  7. photo splits
  8. orange cardstock
  9. white cardstock
  10. 2 – 4×6 coordinating paper/cardstock scraps.   I like to use the double-sided paper from Creative Memories because it coordinates and only takes ONE page to make a ton of owls. 🙂

Step Two:  Punch out your punchie parts.

Punch Art Owl Punches Needed

  1. From the orange paper you will need: the star and a 3/4 inch heart.  Cut the heart in half and cut one point off the star for each owl you are making.  The orange will go a very long way 🙂  The heart will even come out of the center of the star if you set it up correctly.
  2. From the white you will need two 3/4 inch circles.
  3. From one of your Owl colors you will need: two 1-1/2 inch hearts (body of owl), one 1 inch heart, and one 3/4 inch heart
  4. From the second color you will need: one 1-1/4 inch heart, one 1 inch heart, and the two tiny hearts (actually slightly less than 1/4 inch.  I simply used a heart corner rounder and saved the hearts.

Step Three:  Start layering your owl.  You will need to use the fine line glue and some photo splits to help hold some of the pieces together. For example:

Tiny Owl Feet

You will barely overlap the two pieces of the feet, then if you take a photosplit leaving one side of the protective covering intact and put it on the back side, you can easily attach the feet to the owl body.
