Welcome to the VC Rocks Blog Hop - Punches Galore! You have probably come from Carolyn Sharkas's blog, if at any time you wish to go back to the list of blogs, you can find it at VC Rocks . This will be the last blog hop of the year and I know
you will love the projects!
I have a couple different projects to show you, the first uses the extra large oval, large oval and scallop oval punches. The background is double embossed using the Vintage Wallpaper impressions folder and black embossing powder (the base on the first card is Crumb Cake and on the
second card it is Very Vanilla).
The Designer Frames impressions folder works great with the extra large oval punch making a perfect frame for the punched piece. Behind the image in the oval, I have used the faux mother of pearl technique which doesn't stand out in the picture.
This is just another version of the same card.
and a closer look...
My next project is a fancy favor box with a handle made using our new lace ribbon border punch. There are also 3 punched items hanging on some linen thread around the ribbon. These were stamped with stazon on poly shrink plastic and then heated so they shrunk down to a much smaller size.
I used the scallop circle and decorative label punches for those and made a hole in them with the crop-o-dile before I heated the plastic.
Using the Fabulous Phrases stamp set, I stamped "heartfelt" and "thanks" on two of the pieces of plastic and the flower image from Charming on the third. The border around the words is from the Four Frames stamp set.
I hope you enjoyed these projects, it has been so much fun to be a part of VC Rocks again this year, I look forward to next year :)
Thanks for stopping by!!

Kris, your cards look so beautiful - love the background technique! I used to love doing shrink art when my girls were little and I still have some paper left from when SU sold it so I will get busy and make some trinkets for my granddaughters. Thanx for sharing, Hugs, Sassy
