Yes, I did it! I DID IT!!!! (The crowd goes wild!)
After owning this punch for 6 weeks, I finally used it for its intended purpose and made AN ORNAMENT. (actually two) (uhmm… if you require full disclosure, I made two plus an extra top for the “ball” ornament)
And looky there – I used the snowflake sizzlit die as snowflakes too. This didn't take much creativity, but I have to admit, I like the results!
Want the details?
• More Mustard paper sponged with Really Rust and Bravo Burgundy for the ornaments and the top card layer.
• The NEW champagne mist ink brushed on the ornament tops. (This WONDERFUL ink can be purchased from the mini catalog through Jan 4, 2010)
• The ball ornament is the 1 ¾ inch circle punch with the “extra” top from the ornament punch.
• Second layer of card is Bravo Burgundy and base of card is More Mustard.
I suspect that eventually I will find still other uses for this little rascal, but for now, it is time to set it aside and play with someone else. I don't want any of my
Happy Friday!
