Falling in Love Framed Punch Art

Falling In Love

Inking Idaho On The Road- Punch Art

Welcome to Punchin' Up!


Boy, It's been a bit since I was able to post to my Blog, 

Sorry.

I have been dealing with internet/phone issues for the last month.  Finally I think it has been all corrected after 4 repair men, new cable lines from my house out to the pole, new connectors, then new lines down the alley 4 block and weeks later we're up and running. 

Yea!!!! I'm doing the "Happy Dance"

 

Now to the fun stuff!!!

 

Today I'm going to share with you the punch art picture I made for Inking Idaho on the Road Raffle drawing this past weekend.

I love it.. I think it is sooo cute.

What do you think?

I have it laying down on the table, but it is a table top stand up frame, each side is 8"x 10".

My granddaughter wanted to know why the one bear is so sad.  I said," Well let me tell you the story I was thinking when I made it."

The one bear is sad because he has no honey and just bees buzzing around. The little girl bear is happy because she has all the honey.  So the boy bear picks a flower for her hoping she will give him a pot of honey.

 My granddaughter loved it.

I hope you like it too.

As you look at it you can see there are many punches and framelits used in many different ways.

Copper Embossed Affectionately Yours

Welcome to Punchin' Up!

Copper, Copper, Copper 

This Fun/Fancy Fold card I'm sharing with you today I think is just gorgeous with all the copper,  Copper Foil Paper, Copper Embossing Powder and Copper Embossed Designers Series Paper. 


Here it is opened, isn't that fun...
 

I had so much fun making this card.  I normally tell everyone at my classes that you have to 
"stamp first" and then punch out, but on this cards the rules changed.  I had everyone punch out the flowers first, stamp the centers of the flowers with Versa Mark and then emboss with Copper Embossing Powder.  I had never embossed on the foil paper and I hadn't seen where anyone else has tried.  So I thought well... what have I got to loose, I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out, but I think it is beautiful.  What do you think?

The flowers are put on with Stampin' Dimensionals to give that extra pop.

Products Used:

Stamp Set:  Love and Affection
Cardstock:  Crumb Cake, Copper Foil Sheets
Punches:  Pansy, Decorative Label,
Thinlits:  Rose Garden
Designers Series Paper: Affectionately Yours
