Welcome to my crafting blog. After retirement, my husband and I moved to a beautiful location in the Okanagan area of British Columbia. I love all paper crafts including mixed media, journaling and cards. I also dabble in papermaking, photography, fibre art, and altered books. I am an active member of several card and mixed media groups and on the design team of several challenge blog. I love the world of blogging, it has opened many doors for me. My favourite quote is by Maya Angelou. “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” I hope you join me in my search for my creative side. Thanks for stopping by!

Punch It Out


Challenge 46 for Shopping Our Stash is to punch it out! You had to use at least two punched elements on project.  I chose to use a Martha Stewart Flower Punch called “Embossed Pop-Up Flower” that I had in my stash that I had never used.  As soon as this challenge was announced I had an idea what I was going to do with the punch and I punched 3 flowers in a series. .  I also had a Squeeze Punch called “M-Flower” that I decided to use in the center of the larger punch flower.   I added a Hero Art sentiment, buttons and large mauve staples to complete the card. 
Now back to my craft room to stamp some more but I will first clean a spot to be able to work.

  3. You know, I've never used one of those embossed pop-up punches - they look like work, especially getting them straight. I'll just admire from afar, thankyouverymuch. :)

    Thanks for joining us at Shopping Our Stash!
