A couple of punched cards

A couple of cards made entirely with punches. A new venture with the mini heart punch card- keep seeing cards where multiples of the same motif are lined up- thinking of trying butterflies next.
And then another Happy Birthday Punch card -based on the blue/red one I did a few posts back.

Engagement card


Whilst looking through past photos of things i've made I came across this card that i'm quite proud of.
I got the idea from Ella Hill's amazing papercut work (although I can't find the ring invitations that I took the idea from now!)
I used a hexagon punch for the gemstone, a circle punch for the ring and a large tag die on a Big Shot cutter.

Birthday Whimsy

Just realised I hadn't posted this card I made back in October. It was my first foray into using brush pens with stamps-so much cleaner and you can combine colours on one stamp-great!

A Scrapbook page and card


This card was put together from the leftovers used to make the scrapbook page below (still unfinished!)
A new punch used here is Martha Stewart's Happy Birthday Deep Edge Punch borrowed from a friend.
I got a lot of use out of my Daisy Fan punch for these creations-and probably spent too much time  on cutting and sticking cream half circles to the backs of the scallops!

Having fun with punches

The joy of punches!
Here's a few of my favourite punches:
Card made using 5-petal flower and Scallop Diamond Edger Punch 
(As you can see I still had bits left over from the page I made in the last post)
