Art Tip! 
This project uses many Cricut® shapes and all the pieces coordinate so nicely for an adorable finished product. 

Use the Artiste assembly booklet to put the bag together and then add the embellishments. 

The feathers are created with punched circles that are stamped using the kissing technique; however, if you don’t have the circle punch, you can easily make these using the Cricut as well. 

The eyes were created using Shimmer designer brads, but you can use any large brad or button to create the same look. 

Finish with the “owl miss you sentiment” for a special touch.
