Punch cards

We had so much fun making our most recent punch cards at our class!! Lisa and I do lots of blog searching and such for inspiration...not sure I remember where these all came from but thanks to all the bloggers ad such for the awesome inspiration!!!

The hippo card was one of the favorites...I found a hippo in a group of animals someone had made with punches and did my best to choose punches and recreate it. I got it all made in Bordering Blue and my son said, "You know hippos aren't really gray but more of a pinkish purple." Okay, so I made one with the new In Color Rich Razzleberry and asked him about the color. "Yeah, that's better", was the reply! The balloons are Crushed Curry and Old Olive. We used a sponge dauber and White Craft ink to make the cloud. So very cute!

Another favorite was the guy in his "Speedo" on his inner tube. We made the tube a bit bigger perhaps and so did not add the words on the front. Very inventive way to use the photo corner punch, don't you think?! I love how he is just so relaxed and laid back...that is how summer should be right?

I hope you enjoy these. I will try to photograph the other three we made at class ad add them soon.

Lisa and I just found the inspiration for the 10 card Occasions Card Class we will be offering at the end of this month. If you are local to the Monadnock Region or Brattleboro, VT e-mail me and I can get class information right out to you. It would be great to have you come stamp with us!!
