Isn’t he cute?  He’s made with “Punch Art”, punches stacked together.  There’s no stamping.  I used glossy paper (no longer available from Stampin’ Up!) which looks especially great run through the Big Shot in an embossing folder.  If you don’t have glossy paper you could use Shimmery White card stock and you really don’t need to use a Big Shot.

The cookies was decorated with the Simply Pressed stamp.  I dropped the cookies into cellophane bags, added a topper cut with the Top Note Die, added a little stamping and an embellishment of one piece punched from Silver Glimmer Paper and one punched from matching card stock.  Done!

When I brought some to a bake sale they all sold quickly and everyone told me how wonderful they looked.

I love this little pumpkin!  Sometimes I add a battery votive candle. The one on the left looks lacy because of the border punch I used.  They both have leaves made with the 5-Petal Punch, but you can make these without any special tools if you don’t mind cutting simple leaves free-hand.

I can decorate my home with them from October through November, then it folds flat for storage until next year.

The Gift Bow Die is now available again!

I just saw that Stampin’ Up! making this bow die available again.  Yippee!!!  I love this die!  I’ve made regular bows like the one shown here, but also big round bows.  I’ve even seen angels made from it.  I’m so glad to see it for sale again.

I couldn’t wait to try this.  I bought a flat porcelain ornament from my local hobby store.  Then I stamped and embosses with Wild Wasabi and Pewter.  It made wonderful gifts!  I kept one for our tree.  Love it!
