Punch Art Pumpkin

Hello and welcome. Today’s card came about because I wanted to try making a punch art pumpkin. Background paper was in my stash. I used Stampin Up’s small oval punch for the pumpkin, small leaves had been die cut a while ago, stem was fussy cut. Center strip was run through an embossing folder by The Paper Studio. Sentiment was printed on the computer and cut with Stitched Rectangles Framelits from Stampin Up. Corners of pp were rounded, and ovals edges were sponged before putting together.

Fractured Sympathy

Spider And Monster

Hello and welcome. Even though my Halloween cards are done I just couldn’t pass up the CYHTP Monster challenge. Background paper was found online, and I embossed it with the Spider Web ef by The Paper Studio. Gates and monster are Tim Holtz dies, spider is from an old Provo Craft die. Yellow Stickles were added to the spider’s eyes and spider is popped up. The Happy Halloween washi tape was an afterthought when I found it in my stash.

Wine Or Be Skinny

Hello and welcome. Time again for d-o-s’s chuckle of the month. The sentiment “If you had to choose between drinking wine every day or being skinny, which would you choose? Red or white?” was found online. D-o-s chose red. Pp was in my stash, die used is a no name I bought on Amazon, wine glasses are computer clip art.

Baby Fox

Hello and welcome. Today’s card is for our favorite breakfast server. She’s expecting her first baby and when she and her husband first got together, they were big fans of the X-Files series and decided if they ever had a boy his name would be Fox. The gift we’re giving them is a stuffed fox I had a friend crochet, so I wanted to bring the fox theme to the card.

Pp was found online, template for the boy’s dungaree card was found on Pinterest. I was having issues with my Silhouette, so I used the template and fussy cut the card pieces. I embossed the strapped overall to give them a little interest. Buttons are a hand punch then I poked tiny holes in them. Pockets are 1/2″ squares that I rounded the bottom corners using a nail file, and I did the same to the baby fox square. Baby fox was found online, Since the way the pp was cut the foxes in the paper didn’t show so I cut pieces with the fox on them for the pocket tops.

Happy Thanksgiving

Hello and welcome. While thinking about making a Thanksgiving card I came across this piece of pp and thought that would be perfect. Strip and leaves were embossed with Cuttlebug embossing folders. Sentiment was printed on the computer and cut with Stitched Rectangles by Die-namics. The punched leaves were in my fall stash.

Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate you taking the time and comments are very welcome. Have a great day and stay healthy & safe.
