Recently my Punch Classes made a card using the Punch Art wrench and they loved it. Here is another idea using the Punch Art Wrench! I combined with with the Happy Father's Day greeting from All Holidays. I started with a base of Kraft cardstock and layered on Soft Suede. I used a piece of stripe paper from Travel Journal Designer Paper and layered that on top. I stamped Happy Father's Day once in Soft Suede and once in Pumpkin Pie on Very Vanilla, then cut out the Pumpkin Pie center and layered it over the Soft Suede. I layered the Very Vanilla on Pumpkin Pie cardstock and placed on front.
For the punch art wrench, I used the Boho Blossoms punch and the 1" circle punch for the bottom, the 1 3/8 Circle punch and Word Window punch for the top. The middle is just a rectangle piece of cardstock. I sponged along all the edges with Soft Suede ink. Finally, I added two Circle Designer Brads (retiring!) in the upper right corner. I thought they looked a little like bolts! Clever, huh?
Make sure to check out Create with Connie and Mary to see Mary's delightful card this week!
