Bird Punch Poinsettia Card
Thinking out of the box! I love our punches because they can be used for so much more than the original design intent. This poinsettia can be made out of the bird punch. I punched 7 birds in real red and seven in garden green. I also punched a 5 petal flower out of red. Next, I sponged the edges in chocolate chip classic ink. I layered everything together and attached the flower with a glitter brad from the basics collection. I added a bit of dimension to the flower by scoring the centers of the petals and bending them slightly upward before I added it to the bird layers. I layered red and white cardstock which I also sponged with chocolate chip. The words come fromSeasonal Sentiments. This is a beautiful card!

Sweet Snowglobe
You wouldn't believe how quickly this card goes together! Fold your red base, emboss a piece of white cardstock using your Big Shot and the snowflake embossing folder, then scallop the edge of it. Tie a red satin ribbon around it and punch a 13/4 circle in the corner. Stamp the snowglobe from
Sweet Snowglobe in bashful blue then again in real red and yet again in wasabi. Cut out the house and the trees and attach them to the blue. Tear a tiny white scrap and add at the bottom for snow. Fill a sweet treat cup with a little glitter and place it in the punched hole. Use the tape on the cup to attach the blue piece. Attach this the base. Add a few rhinestones. The Merry Christmas is from Christmas Greetings and is stamped in black. Cut the base out of the red stamped piece and attach it. Done! We sell the envelopes to mail this but it really better to hand deliver this pretty shaker card.

Big Shot Punch Art Santa Card
Ho! Ho! Ho! Santa is in Memphis! He was very easy to create. I embossed some white card stock using my Big Shot and the Petals-A-Plenty embossing folder. I cut it up for the beard and hat trim using an oval shape for a pattern. Then I used the large oval punch for the mustache trimming the ends to a point. The card base is real red. His face, nose, and mouth are blushing bride sponged with pretty in pink. I used a dauber in pink to add his cheeks. His eyes are the 1/2 circle punch with white gel pen marks. I cut up a green glitter pick I found at Micheal's and added a red glitter brad from the bright pack. I feel another class coming on! This punch art stuff is fun!

I found the directions for this guy on a stamping site called Paper Punch Addiction. The lady does absolutley spectacular punch art work. Many of her directions are free, some you have to buy.

Email or call me if you would like to join us so I can have a kit ready for you.
Serene Snowflakes/Christmas Greeting
Another quick and easy Christmas card! This time I used Night of navy for the background. I never think to use that color. Pretty! I embossed the snowflakes with white craft ink and white embossing powder on a smaller piece of navy. I used the lace punch to add white around both edges. I embossed Merry Christmas from Christmas Greetings and then tied on a organza ribbon. A few rhinestones really makes this card sparkle. For the inside I stamped a few snowflakes on white with night of navy classic ink. I stamped the verse from Christmas Greetings slightly above the middle. This makes it easy to write on if you don't have a white gel pen handy.
Dasher/ Priceless
I made this using Dasher, Pricless, and Heard From the Heart. I stamped everything on white using cherry cobbler classic ink. Then I added three cherry brads from regal brads using the mat pack and poker. I covered Dasher with crystal effects and added some rhinestones to his horns. Quick and easy. I may using him for a stamp-a-stack class. Cherry cobbler is a beautiful color!

Autumn Harvest
This one was fun to make. First we stamped the pumpkins with black stazon on glossy white cardstock. Then we used a white SU crayon and drew around some of the black so it would resist some of the color and create shading. Then we used ink and daubers to swirl the color on. Then we cut that piece into three and attached them to the black cardstock. This was all attached to olive cardstock. The words are from an old set. We used three black brads.

Big Bold Cupcakes
For this cute birthday card I used the Big Shot and The Big Bold Cupcakes dies. I used the solid stripe stamp with chocolate chip ink on chocolate chip cardstock for the bottoms. The tops and hearts are made from regal rose and certainly celery cardstock. I covered the tops and hearts with versamark then dipped them in iredescent ice. I heat embossed them all. The words are form A Word For You stamped with chocolate chip ink. I added a scrunched celery ribbon with glue dots at the bottom, topped with a brights button which was tied with a piece of linen thread. The white cardstock is cut 1/4 smaller all the way around and taped onto a regal rose backing.

Two Tags Halloween Treat
This started out as a simple treat holder but I kept adding one more thing. Typical! I used pumpkin pie cardstock with the Big Shot and the Two Tags die. I made an extra score line from the flat edge at 21/8. Then I stamped the words from Seasonal sentiments (mini) and colored them in with a tangerine tango marker. Then I ran that through the Big Shot using the spider web embossing folder. I punched the moon out of daffodil delight and sponged around the edge with pumpkin pie. This is held on with a dimensional. Then I punched a black bat and used the white gel pen for the eyes. He is also held on using a dimensional. I tied a narrow black grosgrain ribbon at the top. The candy bar was tricky- you have to use a flat one. This is a crunch bar.

Every Moment
The camera could not quite the beauty of this card. I think we will be making this one for our October 16th class. I stamped the woodgrain background stamp on chocolate chip with chocolate chip ink. Then I stamped the flower from Every Moment using the masking technique with black stazon. The words are from Word Play, also stamped with black stazon. I used a blender pen and the razzleberry ink pad to color in the flower petals. I used an olive marker for the stems and a daffodil marker for the centers. I punched old olive paper with the border punch and added it to the top and bottom. Then I spritzed the whole thing using a bashful blue marker. After I mounted this I added three gold brads. Then I put crystal effects over the daffodil centers. Wow... beautiful!
