Corner Punching...

Sometimes I love to go back over cards from the past...  and use some of the techniques that I use to use all the time... this is one of those special techniques...  CORNER PUNCHING... 

Maybe I should say that this is really double punching... I love doing this as it gives such a wonderful layered look...

 

To create this effect.... make your original Martha Stewart corner background... then cut a piece of paper the inside of the paper lace piece...  and punch around the four corners... now measure and cut another piece of paper for the background... it can be colored, or embossed, or both... your creativity is the limit to this area...  go for it... 

 

A close up of the medallion...  Thanks again to my good friend Penny... Love this fold Penny...  East Meets West....   

 

 

 

Here I used a piece of paper that I had sprayed...  actually it was a piece of paper that was going to go into the 'garbage bag' but I  put some more ink on it... and used it... YES!!! 

 

another new medallion fold... 

 

Do you see all the layers on this one... 

 

Loving the look of this... 

 

Another multi layered background...  with a lot of punching... 

and I had to make an envelope to go with this one...  YES!!!!

This card shows all the detail of the punching... 

 

And of course the medallion... 

Cutting out a copy of a print really changes the look of it... but I am sure you recognize the SWING...  love this picture... it was an all time favorite of our daughters too... 

 

Well folks... I hope you get out some of your punches and create something today using them...  I love all my punches... and need to use them more often...  make them available so that you do use them more often... 

 

Have a super wonderful day... and create something GREAT for yourself... and share it with others... 

 

Thanks for stopping by for a visit... and see you tomorrow with more goodies... 

 

Love, Light and Peace....Bonnie
