Purple Dragon

Sorry for the absence - looking like posts may be sporadic this week too.   Family health just has to take precedence over punching and blogging. 

Hubby got back in the country and took his turn playing nurse so I did get to spend some time at home and jumped on the punches, because that is what makes me happy.  But don't expect tutorials this week because making those does NOT make me happy and we have enough unhappy this week as is.  I will be happy to answer specific questions.
Here is one of the things I worked on.


Mentioned my 'dragon days' in my Knight in Shining Armor post (which made me want to make a dragon) - I'm thinking this little guy looks a lot friendlier than I act on those days.

If you think this guy is cute then you need to go check out this guy - and this guy (who was inspired by the first one) absolutely the cutest punch dragons I could ever imagine!  I hesitated to even try a dragon because I knew I couldn't match them. So Clever and Amazing!

Not sure what project I'll use this beast on... but that really doesn't matter - it made me happy just to make him!

Back to nursing duty tonight.

OMG! This is my most favorite punch item you have done EVER!!!!! How cute is this little guy? I NEED him to come visit me, I know he wants to, lol.

He would look good on a Knight in Shining Armor scrapbook page. Maybe not a purple and pink girly dragon, but maybe a green and yellow one anyway.

Hugs,

Hehehehe, he IS CUTE!

I'm doing a birthday party for my friend's daughter.... might be cute if I can do something princess-y and the dragon.

Hugs to you and your family! (I was going to say to your husband, but thought you may get the wrong idea! I mean, I am a stranger from Canada... ;)

This paper punch dragon is amazing! I am brand new to punch art, so would you be able to tell me what punches you used to make him? I want to make baby shower invites with this for my husband's military squadron, as our mascot is the dragon. This is the cutest dragon I have seen!!!
Thank you!
