Punch Storage



This is a rack for storing the new SU punches,
that was discovered by another demonstrator.  It is
found at Walmart, in the bathroom fixtures department.

It works GREAT for this style punch.  The whale tail 
punches, not so much.  I think it was about $6.97
or close to that price point.


As you can see, it holds 5 punches per
level, so is quite the space saver.

Blue Ribbon

This was a VERY quick card to make.  Sadly, it
should have been a Father's Day card 
(Happy Father's Day Dad!) 

I can't say enough about how quickly you
can produce a masculine or child's card
with this set.  Mine is a very simple card,
but obviously the other stamps in the set
enable a wide range of variation.

Set:  Blue Ribbon
Colors:  Riding Hood Red, Night of Navy
Accessories:  Circle Punch

Vicki's Birthday card

This is a birthday card for my sweet SIL, Vicki.
I had been wanting to use this image from
the From The Heart stamp set.

Colors:  Very Vanilla, Lucky Limeade,
retired SAB DSP
Accessories:  Apothecary Accents Framelits,
Pearls

Note:  The framelit from Apothecary Accents
does not "fit" this stamped image.  I ran it through
the Big Shot 2 times, first cutting the image so that
there was a lot of white space above the image.  With the
second pass, I moved the framelit down so that
it overlapped previously cut area, forming a new shape,
and fitting neatly around the stamped image.
