Tres Chic

Punch Art – Tulip

August 25, 2009 By Connie | 1 Comment

Wow…two posts in one day from me!

Reminder…today is the last day to sign up for the August Card Kit.

I also have one more share available for the Designer Series Paper Share #1.

This week there is a Punch Art Challenge going on over at Late Night Stampers and this is my submission as part of the Design Team. Everyone knows that I LOVE Punch Art…I’ve been doing classes of Punch Art for years…long before it got popular!

This is one that my Punch Class did several months ago. This card was also displayed on the boards at Convention! Woohoo! I had a total of 8 cards displayed on the boards, so I was pretty happy!

I started with a base of Certainly Celery Cardstock and layered on Pixie Pink cardstock that I ran thru the Texturz Polka Dot die. I placed a band of Certainly Celery 5/8 Grosgrain Ribbon around it. The Whisper White and Sahara Sand were run thru the Big Shot with the Oval Bigz Die. I pierced holes in each of the scallops. I used Tres Chic in Sahara Sand for the background. The leaves and stem were handcut from Certainly Celery and sponged with Garden Green. The Tulip was punched from two sizes of Ovals and sponged with Pixie Pink ink. For You from All Holidays Stamp Set was stamped in Pixie Pink and punched with the small oval, then layered on the large oval punch.

Hope you enjoy this card! BUSY week for me…so I’m going to be brief!
