Let it Snow

Hi Everyone,

It's Barbara here with another one of my Sunday Inspirations. Since it is getting closer to Christmas and the holidays, I thought I'd share with you a card that I will be sending out this holiday season. I used one of the brand new punches that are available now, and it is so perfect for your holiday and winter season cards and layouts.

This great snowflake punch ,punch 312, makes a beautiful border and corners and..... well look at what this punch enabled me to create.

Make sure you save those punched out snowflakes, they'll look great on your card too!!!

This is a 6" square card. I used the C insert to punch the corners on that shimmery blue panel. I decided a border punched on a center band would look great on this card.The band started out as 1 3/4" wide and I punched it on one side for the 1st punch then I turned the card stock band around to punch the other side. As I alternated the sides I punched,  I just lined the punch up with the large snowflake. Next I attached the band to the card front and then I added my sentiment to the center. Then I glued the larger and the small flakes to the card and it's finished and in no time flat.

Well have a great week and I will see you soon.

Wow!! That is so clever to use the punch on both sides of the band to create the border! I love it!

Thanks Good morning, Stephanie here working with "left overs". At one point, I used the Lattice Die on some cardstock, but never used it. Then I came across a black piece of cardstock that had an oval cut from it's center. So I thought I'd try to combine these items and see what I could come up with. I glued the Lattice die cut behind the cardstock creating a fun look to the front of this card. Then I die cut the Butterfly die, thinking it might look good with the Lattice die cut. Since it looked a little plain, I...

Punching Cork... Hi everyone! Wendy here and I'm back to share a card I did using the Lotus Punch on cork. The cork I used was very thin. I had no troubles sliding it into the punch. Be sure to select a thinner cork and a larger design punch to ensure success with punching. Before adhering the cork to the card on foam adhesive I backed it first on a piece of cardstock to give it more stability. Simply punch a circle in the cardstock where the punched area of cork will rest on the cardstock to allow your pattern paper/brad to...
