Only Ovals Card
Filed Under Cards, Designer Series Paper, Punches | Leave a Comment

The Only Ovals stamp set is one of my favorites because it has a coordinating oval punch. The punch makes this card quick to make and the two earth tones are perfect for the fall. The finished size is a 4" x 4" notecard that still fits in a standard envelope. Read more

Jumbo Paper Clip Bookmarks
Filed Under 3-D Items, Punches | 2 Comments
These decorated jumbo paper clips make great bookmarks. Punches such as the circle and scallop circle are a huge timesaver when making these bookmarks. You can find the jumbo paper clips in the office supply aisle at Wal-Mart. I like to use my scraps and bits of ribbon to make these bookmarks. You can personalize them by using a monogram or by using someone’s favorite color (hence the tempting turquoise with the soccer ball). The bookmarks are made with 2 pieces of the largest size (i.e., 2 scallop circles) and a pop-up glue dot smashed in the middle holding everything together.

Spider Treats
Filed Under Halloween, Punches | Leave a Comment

Isn’t this the cutest treat you have seen for Halloween? All I used are various punches (scallop circle, 1/2" circle. 1/4" circle, and photo corners) and cardstock scraps (basic black, pumpkin pie, perfect plum, and green galore). In between the 2 black scallop circles are mint patties. Super cute and easy! Thanks to Julie Case for sharing the idea. Let me know what you think.
