Die-Cuts and/or Punches

Good morning fellow crafters.  Lisa B. here and I am happy to be sponsoring this challenge. We are asking you to use die-cuts and/or punches on your project.  There are some awesome metal dies out there that can really help out and add some amazing accents to your project.  One thing I love about die-cuts and punches are they are a wonderful way to use up smaller pieces of papers or scraps.  Plus there are some amazing videos out there on how to use punches in different ways. I personally have a stash of both of them and they really come in handy.

I would also like to take a moment to thank our wonderful July Step-Sisters Ruth from Weirdcat Cards 'n' Stuff and  Leah Schaeffer.  They have made some beautiful and stunning projects for you all.  If you are interested in being a Step-Sister just place SS after your name on your challenge entry.  We would love to have you!  The information can be found at the top of our blog.

I had lots of fun with this challenge.  Personally I think using die cuts or punches are a perfect way to use up your scraps.  I could of kept making projects, it made me feel great using up my scrap papers.  This whole projects was made using leftovers which made my heart skip a beat! lol

The papers are from Kate & Co by Mind's Eye.  The fact that they were double sided made it easy. I included a picture of the punches that I used to make my project.  I will have all my info on my blog.
