Ducky Punch Art

Wow…sorry it has been several days since I've posted.  I have been busy creating, mostly things for classes and convention!  I'll be showing them next week while I'm gone. 

 

My punch class did this card last month.  I took inspiration from a couple cards I saw with this baby duck punch art and created my version of him splashing in a little pond!  I think he is SO cute!

 

 

The base is Tempting Turquoise cardstock and I layered on Daffodil Delight.  I used the plaid pattern from Pawsitively Prints II (now retired).  I freehand cut the "pond" from Tempting Turquoise and sponged around the edges with Tempting Turquoise Classic Ink.  The two "splashes" are the wing from the Bird Punch, also sponged.  I wanted something that resembled waves in the pond and we don't have Tempting Turquoise Ribbon, so I used a sponge dauber and Tempting Turquoise Ink to color my White Taffeta Ribbon.  I applied a length of Sticky Strip and them ruffled the dyed Taffeta Ribbon on top.

 

I baby duck is made from the 1 3/4 Circle Punch, 1" Circle Punch for the head and Bird Punch for the wing, beak and head feather.  The eyes were made from the Crop A Dile in black and white.  I stamped Baby, Welcome to the Word from Stampin' Up!'s A Word from You stamp set and punched with the Scallop Oval Punch.  It is layered on the Wide Oval punched from Daffodil Delight.  I added a trio of little pearls under the greeting.

 

I think it turned out, OH SO CUTE!  lol!
