Kraft Outlet DT Reveal for "Punch it Out" Challenge

Tammy Hobbs

 

For today's "Punch It Out" challenge, Tammy used 6 punches on her card.  Her inspiration started when she created a medallion rosette out of a pretty blue patterned paper she had leftover from a previous make. She used a scallop border punch to get the scallop edges.  Using Lunch Bag Kraft, she punched a scallop circle and added some white paint to the edges. A snowflake was stamped using Paper Sweeties, Snow Friends, and punched with a 1" circle punch to add to the center of the medallion rosette. An aqua rhinestone was added to the center of the precious snowflake. A card base of Pacific Blue was then used to layer Lunch Bag Kraft and patterned paper adding more white paint to the edges.  Using the same patterned paper the medallion rosette was created from, she then used a border punch to create a beautiful trim to add to the bottom of her patterned paper.  A length of Natural Twill Tape was added to the lower portion of her card. Using Lunch Bag Kraft, her favorite, she used a large snowflake punch and tucked it above the Natural Twill Tape.   After building her card base, Tammy stamped and paper pieced her adorable winter snowman from Paper Sweeties Snow Friends and added ultra fine white glitter. She die-cut a butterfly from coordinating patterned paper she used on her snowman's scarf and hat and also sugar coated it with ultra fine white glitter next adding to the center of her card. A sentiment was stamped from Paper Sweeties Friendship Warms The Heart and punched it out. She added snowflakes to her punched out sentiment using VersaMark Ink and of course more white paint was added for a shabby look.  The final finishing touches were to add another paper border to the top, place the medallion rosette which has been coated with snowflake glitter and the placement of two pewter stick pins.

Have you sent out Thank You's for all those goodies you got at Christmas?  Well Creative Team member Becky Garrison has a pretty and easy way to let people know how appreciative you are!  The base of the Thank You tag is a Large Natural Shipping Tag  simply covered with some pretty text patterned paper.  The flower is punched from coordinating papers using a 1 1/2" EK Success scalloped circle punch, and the center is punched using an Epiphany Crafts Round 14 Tool.  The trim is some lace from Becky's stash, and the very pretty Vintage Keys Twill Ribbon.  The green cord is the Brights Hemp Cord.  For step by steps on how to make the punched flower, and more info on this tag, visit  Becky Garrison Paper Crafts.

 

Jan Del Bone

Jan always begins with a note card - this time she used a Buff Ivory Blank Note Card which she cut down to 5x5.  She adhered some design paper, and then another layer of design paper, which on which she used a Martha Stewart punch around the page, to fulfill this week's challenge, Punch it Out !  She attached a Journaling Ticket, with a Kiss sentiment from the Love Ink Rubbing Sheet, a heart brad, and a flower tied up with some Natural Hemp Cord.  A flair surrounds the journaling ticket, and the card is completed with a valentine clown.
