Week 37 Challenge for Saturday - Use 3 Punches

#37

Challenge: Use 3 punches

September 17 - 23rd, 2013

Hi everyone, Doris here today with my project for this week's challenge. I don't know why, but I don't use my punches as often as I should. I've got so many Martha Stewart and EK Success punches, and they give a quick little punch to a project. But this challenge was the perfect reason to open that drawer and get re-acquanted with some of my favorites, and here's what I came up with:

I used some Denim Bazzill paper mixed with some kraft paper scraps for the flower and an oval punch, and the Salutation stamp set from
Paper Smooches.  The other two punches are from Martha Stewart.
You can find the Bazzill paper and stamps on the
Weekly Deal page of Cuttin and Stampin found HERE.

So break out those punches and add your project using 3 of them to this week's challenge. Please make sure your creation post has a

Thanks for playing along we will be announcing the winners on September 27, 2013.

Weekly Challenge #37 - Wednesday

Challenge:   Use 3 punches

September 17 - 23rd, 2013

On this, my fourth or fifth attempt, I decided that I liked the Martha Stewart zig-zag border punch for a Halloween project.  After all, this Doodlebug "Halloween Parade" line includes chevron patterns, so a zig-zag border would work! 

Supplies:
Stamps:  Salutations (Paper Smooches)
Paper:  Criss-Cross Solid Cardstock (Bazzill Basics), Halloween Parade (Doodlebug)
Paint/Ink: Memento dye ink in Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko), chalk ink in Charcoal (ClearSnap)
Accessories: Glitter stickers & Lilac baker's twine (Doodlebug), Corner rounder, tag, and small circle punches (EK Success), Zig-Zag border punch (Martha Stewart)

So after initially struggling with the three punches, I actually ended up using four:  The zig-zag border, the tag, the small circle (hole in tag) and a corner rounder.

My particular tag punch did not have a larger nesting tag punch to accompany it, so I just stuck my purple tag on a piece of the multi-colored chevron Doodlebug paper and trimmed the outer piece to size.   Then I punched the hole through both layers and threaded the Baker's twine through it.

We hope you'll join us and make a project using three punches!  It could be a scrapbook page, card, etc.  You can link your project here.  Please make sure your creation post has a link back to Cuttin' and Stampin'.
