Lots of Cards with Punchy Goodness......(it never ends)!!!!

Hello everyone!

Here's another post with lots of punched goodness. I just get my punches out and can't stop! I wonder what new punches will be in the SU! catalog coming out in June? I can't wait! :)

My husband can hear his wallet shrinking right now. hahaha

 This first little darling was made for Sweet P's punchy swap....hi girl!

The butterfly is made with 2 different square punches. Then two corners of each punchie is punched with the corner rounder punch.

 This little party card came from and idea I'm sure I saw somewhere, just can't remember where. I used the SU! pennant punch to make the party hat!

 This cheery card was made for a challenge in Sweet P's punchy swap. We were to use our punches "negatively". :) Meaning use the paper you punched to get the punched piece and use papers behind that piece to make a design.

And lastly....this one also was made for a challenge in her punchy swap. I wanted the girls to use 3 punched pieces in a row and emboss them. 

I thank you so much for stopping by!

Have a great day!

Until next time...

Punches of Trees and Sunshine

Hi! I hope your week has been INKY! :)

I got to playing around with my punches again and this is what happened:

My blue circle is cut with the Spellbinders circle dies and my Big Shot.

Punches used:

circle punch

scallop circle punch

modern label punch

I hand cut the sun rays. The bird is from the SU! set, Season of Friendship. The sentiment is from SU! Fundamental Phrases.

Thank you for stopping by!

Until next time...

Having Way TOO Much Fun With Punches!

Hi Everybody!

Happy St. Patty's Day to ya! I have my green shirt on. Got it out first thing so I wouldn't get pinched! :)

I've been having so much fun with my paper punches lately. I wanted to show you a few cards I made.

This one is very simple made with a square, circle and corner rounder punch...

 The "M" is cut with my cricut. Then, I just doodled a little and....done.

It's a 4" square note card.

Here's another pretty made with the square punch! Who knew you could make a butterfly with it?

 I pierced the trail and the antenna are black metal dots.

I was very proud of myself for using my scallop square punch. I NEVER use that thing!

  This card took a little time....

 But, only because my big, fumble fingers had a hard time getting the punched owl together!

I used the scallop border, owl and circle punches with this. I used the circle punch to make the cresant shape on the pumpkin pie strip. The large circle is cut with Spellbinders and then embossed with a dots embossing folder. I turned the embossed side inward and then embossed the belly of the owl and turned it outward.

I placed black, satin ribbon over the orange circles and baker's twine (twisted and knotted) behind the owl.

Now, this card I made for the Inspirational Challenge over on SCS today...

 

Here's the photo I drew inspiration from in making this card:

I love the circles and squares on the wallpaper and the color combination.

I tried to mimic the pattern with my circle and square punches.

I also tried something I never had by punching the edges of the stamped medallion and attaching with twine. I went a little crazy with the buttons and pearls.

Well, there's my punchy madness that's been occurring lately. I have another I'm working on for Sweet P's (Sama ~ SCS) Punchy swap. I will get it posted next week.

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Praise the Lord!!!! She still has a smile for you when you walk to her bedside. She is a dear lady and for 92 years old.....well, let's just say I pray I am as healthy as she has been her whole life and that I make it to that beautiful age. :) ~

25 Days of Christmas Creations Day 25

DAY 25! FA LA LA LA LA....LA LA...LA LA!
Yeah! I did it! 25 day of Christmas Creations.....I did it, I did it!!!! Thank you so much for visiting my blog during this event. Oh yeah, and here's a little surprise.....
I will have a little something for the lady that visited the most days!
(Nov. 30th post is first in the "series")
Yay!
Today I'm sharing another ornament I made. This one is big and "romantic" *giggle*

I made this ornament using the build a stocking punch from SU! to make the reindeer. Here's Rudolf and his girly friend :)
He has his Christmas sweater on (made with the It's a Wrap Holidays set from SU!). She also has a sparkly sweater on (made from a scrap piece ?? the maker)
Maybe they're getting ready to go to an "After Christmas" Party. You know he works so hard leading the team and everything, he needs some R & R afterwards. hahahaha

I pray your Christmas Eve is wonderful. Spend time with family and friends and thank the Lord for this time of year. That's what it's all about.
Until next time...
Blessings...
