Had several requests as to how I made the snowman on the card from the last post. Here are a few pictures of the punches I used, the sizes of punches, how the pieces were trimmed and a side view to see the layers of foam tape. This is the version of snowman that had the Rhinoplasty!!! :)
Nestabilities could be used for the circles in place of the punches and the sizes could vary too!
Hope this is helpful for anyone wanting to make them, they are a little putzy, but fun!!!
As always thanks for stopping by and always appreciate the comments....so heart warming!!!
Enjoy the day!!!

Scrunchy Flowers
Had leftovers from the other card so thought I would add a Tilda in Cherry Dress. Dug out the watercolor crayons for a change of coloring techniques. They sure blend easily. Same supplies as the above card with the exception of Tilda and the watercolor crayons, and used Punch Bunch white oak leaf and EK Success Retro flower punches.
You can get lots of lovely Tilda's here!!!
Thanks for stopping by!!! Comments and questions welcome!!!
EDITED: For anyone interested in making the flowers on the top card, I've made up a little guide on what the layers look like. The flowers on the second card are made basically the same, just using different punches. I did scrunch the layers and let them dry before gluing.

Morocco Lace Border Punch Square Tutorial
Have had questions how I got the corners to come out on the square on my Angie's Challenge card with the Morocco Lace Border Punch by EK Success.
Begin with a 5" square. Starting in the middle, punch along one side, then punch the opposite side.
You will have about two thirds of a scallop left on each end of the border.
Punch the other two sides again starting in the middle of the side.
The end result should be nice even corners. If there are little notches, just trim with a scissors.
I've tried this with the Fleur de Lis, but it just does not come out even, but I would think some of the other scallop punches would work well too, it is just a matter of finding what size of square to start with.
Have also had some questions about how to make the flowers. I will be working on some very basic information to put into some tutorials and then can make some other recommendations.
If you live in the Twin Cities metro area of Minnesota, e-mail me if you are interested in attending Floral Punch classes. (Link to e-mail is on the sidebar.)
