Let's "Punch" It!

Morning everyone!

Is there something that you have a lot of in your scrapbooking stash?? I have to admit that I have a lot of punches. And I love them all! I really do use them all the time too. I may not fill the page with punched shapes but I do use them to accent my page here & there.

Now having said that ... I did use one of my label type punches to create this page. On the top portion I punched out 20 or so of that shape and layered them on top of the same colored cardstock. I wanted a subtle effect from the layered punches that's why I used the same solid color.

Supplies used: Paper Trunk Socialite collection and black Benny alpha stickers, Core'dinations cardstock, Jillibean Soup corrugated alpha "u", Scenic Route chipboard circle accent, buttons, string, Scalloped edged scissors, EK Success label punch

This next layout (and yes I love the color blue!!) I had created just using some border punches - and I think I use these all the time on my pages because I feel like they finish off my page. I used paper from an older collection on this layout (Jellybean) mixed with a label from the Krafty collection.

Supplies used: Paper Trunk (Jellybean collection), Flair, Benny alpha stickers (black & turquoise), Coredinations cardstock (white & green), ribbon (Making Memories), EK Success border punches, black pen (American Crafts)

I hope I've inspired you to get out your punches and start creating more with them. Try unique ways to use them on your pages. And remember .... as always ... have fun! ;)
