My 'Full Heart' punch is definitely one of my favourites and because it's been out at a lot of classes and workshops it's starting to show a little bit of wear and tear. As punches get used and get blunter they don't cut DSP as well as they used to when they were new.
If any of your punches are starting to do this, as mine was today, then place a scrap piece of paper or card behind the DSP when you are punching out the shape and the shape will punch perfectly.
And remember just because Christmas is over doesn't mean the scraps of holiday papers you still have can't be put to other uses just like I have using the 'Jolly Holiday' DSP in my card.
The techniques I used in this card are: -
- punching
- stamping
- sponging
- faux stitching
- using Stampin' Dimensionals for a 3D effect
While non of these techniques were new to me this time maybe one or more or them is for you. Check out my Happy New Year Challenge and send me a photo of your creation. Feel free to contact me for more information on the techniques listed above.
