Cardmaking -

A card that uses punchies!! In this case, the five petal flower punch from SU. I used a pushpin at a very low angle on a soft surface (folded up newspaper) to emboss each petal from the center to the point to give them dimension and layered two to create each embellishment. The stamped one uses one of the Sale-a-brations sets. I added coloured sequins under the brads for a little bling in the centers. These can be made any colour and you probably have coloured sequins in your stash somewhere!!

Thrifty tip: I punched the three red punchies from the middle of the red rectangle layer. This saves cardstock and makes your card lighter!! Read this idea on a blog somewhere along the way and thought I would try it!! Worked quite well.
