MY CUSTOMER'S TAG PUNCH STAR AND CARD!

Do I have talented customers or what? After seeing my blog post from yesterday, I found out one of my customers was brave enough to try the tag punch on their own, and this is what she came up with. The top photo is her star and she has layered two stars to make the awesome card in the second photo. She used the textured paper, printed paper and adhesive die cuts from her Winter Brights scrapbook kit. I love this card! Thanks so much, Laura, for letting me share it with everyone!!

ALL MY PLAY TIME!

I have been trying some of the new techniques I've seen and shareing them with my stamping friends! Below are a few of the things I've been playing around with and wanted to share with all of you. I hope you enjoy! Please feel free to post comments, I love to hear what your thoughts are.

TAG PUNCH STAR

When I saw this technique, I simply had to try it. It is very, very easy to do too! And, yes, it is made with the tag punches. I absolutely love the SU! punches because they punch extremely easy and I can turn them upside down so I can see exactly where I'm punching. I used the Snow Blossom punch to decorate the inside of the star with, and I like the sparkle from the rhinestone brad. I think the taffeta ribbon adds a little extra "classic" look to my card.

Z-FOLD CARD

I have been seeing a lot of the Z-Fold Cards, so I had to try one out. This is my version of it. I think the Designer Series Paper made it really quick to put together, and the different fold gives it a bit more texture and a little 'surprise' for the recipient. I really like the wide gross grain ribbon too!

GIFT CARD HOLDER

This is the outside of the gift card holder we made at Friday's hostess club. It is made with the five-in-one template, Designer Series Paper, Snow Blossom Punch and circle punch. I put a rhinestone brad in the center to give it a little "sparkle". The red piece is a belly band to hold it closed. See the photo below for the inside of the gift card holder.

Here is a photo of the inside of the gift card holder we made at Friday's hostess club. The gals all loved it, and it was lots of fun to make.
