Punched Art - Giraffes

I found a new addiction - making cards with punches. The creation process is fantastic. Look at these giraffes. I used circles and ovals for the project.



Robotz Cricut

This is my first Robotz project with my cricut. The experience was rewarding. A nice card for a boy's birthday!

A Masculine Card

The embossed balloons give a masculine look to the card.


A Brownish Look



A Rosetta Card

This is the first time I used a rosetta on a card. The dimensional effect is gorgeous. And it's so easy to to make one. Just punch a strip of paper, accordion fold it,  and join the two ends together to form a circle.



Butterfly Dies

The Vivienne and the Vagabond butterfly dies are really intricate. The look is fantastic!












A Combination of Punched Flowers and Embossed Paper

This is a combination I like a lot. It gives the background a soft look and the card a dimensional effect.





Baby Cards


Here are two cards I made using a carriage die, one for a baby girl and the other for a baby boy. The result is really neat!



Spellbinders Cards







Mini Cards

Here are some more mini cards made out of scrap paper and embossing folders.
Easy and practical for short messages.

Mini Cards

These cards are a good way to use all those scraps of paper I collect after a project. The result is delicate and appropriate for a short note. The same paper pattern can be used with different embossed paper.





Wooden Tags

Here are some more wooden tags stamped and decorated with cut and embossed paper. I first painted and sanded them for an aged look.
