more punch art shares

I have some more swap card shares for you...  These are great versions of flowers you can make with punches!

punch card swap shares

It's spring vacation this week, so with kids home I have not had much free stamping time.  I thought I would share with you a punch swap I recently participated in.

This is my card using punches to make a mouse, I sponged with white craft for shading:

Here are two more fun ones (sorry don't have names on them, but they all did not provide names)

Love the use of heart punches for bride and groom card!

And a frog punch art!

I love designer series paper

Playing around with some more new stuff, as it the title says- I love designer series paper.  This paper called Paisley petals  is so pretty, but I cut into and let the be more of the main image.  I also used four frames a new stamp set.  The rest came out my scrap box of left over projects from stamp a stacks and workshops.

The design is this weeks sketch challenge over at splitcoast stampers, SC328.

2 challenges in one

Late night stampers challenge this week was to use flowers and I also used Stamping 411 sketch challenge this week.  It is a rainy day, so I decided to play with my new stamps that will come up in Summer mini.  The stamp set is fabulous flowers and the designer paper is called "beyond the garden".  Love the bright happy colors.

I also did one for my blue mood of the weather using same stamps and paper:

Sail away Stampin Up style

This is a sneak peek at upcoming stamp set in the summer mini catalog called "sail away".  It is a single stamp for $9.95.  I totally cased the card out of the mini catalog because I loved the colors and design.  I even got to break out my color spritzer tool that I haven't had a chance to use it.  Fun, fun, fun!

birthday card buffet

Here is another card we will be doing at upcoming card buffet this week.  The stamp set is "on a pedastel".  I was inspired by the designer series paper sweet & sour speciality paper color combo of pumpkin pie and rose red.

Big shot birthday fun

This is a card I came up with for upcoming birthday card buffet.  There is no stamping on this card!  I used the sizzlet Big bold Birthday and then used the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder.  The paper is from a retired Simply scrappin kit which I always never am able to use up the whole kit.
