I have been finding a lot of inspiration on Pinterest lately and I came across this cute owl:

I thought that it would be cute to make my own similar plush creation out of paper.
I started this project by hand drawing an owl shape onto pattern paper.
I cut out two. 1 to use as a backing and 1 to use as the front side.
I then dressed up the front side with some basic shapes that I cut using my Slice (Making Memories tool) and lots of yummy GCD papers.
Next, I used paper towels to stuff my owl, to make him plump and cute and look like a plush figure
(you can also use tissues for this).
Next, I chose some chipboard pieces from Melody Ross's chip art collection to use as the owl's feet.
I painted them white, then attached them to the bottom of the owl.
Here is the final project:
