This week, I have some more ideas to get more out of your punches, another layered flower and a banner. I used Kaleidoscope Brites cardstock again this week.
again this week.
This time I cut the flowers into 6 petals.
I gently formed the petals to give them some dimension.
I used a large glue dot and placed the larger petals
on the glue dot, leaving gaps between the petals.
Then added the second layer of smaller petals.
Then I added a button to the center of the flower.
To make the banner, I used a 1-3/4 square punch.
I added a paper ruler to my punch to make sure
it is even and centered when I punch.
When the corners are at equal lengths on the ruler
the cut will be centered and even on either side.
Here is the punched banner.
I added the sentiment "Gratitude to God" on vellum. It has been a long time {many years} since I've used vellum. The vellum RRD carries is absolutely perfect for stamping. The sentiment came out perfect. It is crisp and clear and sheerness of the vellum does not weigh down the piece.
I added some Mia's Cottage ribbon and
the flower to the banner.
The finished page.
