“Get Punchy”
"I absolutely love creative punch art! (Have you seen my Pinterest Punch Art Board?) I know not everyone loves punch art, but I do. I also know that a lot of us don’t have many punches. Therefore I’m not going to make this challenge too difficult.
The Simple Plan: Make a card using a punch somewhere on it. Easy Peasy!
The Advanced Plan: Make a card where you use punches to make something they were not originally intended for. For example: Use oval punches to make a frog, use circle punches to make a snowman, use the stocking punch to make a stick horse, use a heart punch to make a Christmas tree, use a variety of punches to make a chef or witch or elephant, etc."
When I read her challenge I immediately thought of Sesame Street characters. I have seen some really creative cards made with punches so I thought I would try it. My three year-old daughter loves Elmo, so I decided to make an Elmo card. I do plan to make Big Bird and Cookie Monster soon to send to Operation Write Home. I hope you like my card and that it makes you smile.
