Steppin' Up Your Punch Art

***Post Update***
Thank you to everyone for your interest in this posting. I have received numerous emails and comments (which I love getting) asking which punches I used to make this little guy, specifically the hat. Here are the punches used:

Face- Ornament Punch
ears- wing from 2-step bird
whites of eyes- 1/2' circle
pupils/nose/ball of hat- circle from bitty punch pack
hat brim- modern label
hat- full heart

Thank you and enjoy! If you don't already have these punches and would like to place an order I would love to help;) : niki176@aol.com
Is there such a thing as bad punch art? I think not. But is there a difference between good punch art and GREAT punch art? For sure! This little guy, who I think is pretty stinkin' cute, was one of the creations we made at our past Holiday Punch Art Class. Cute, right? But lets step him up a bit....



Here is what you need, these are my favorite punch art enhancement tools: Textured card stock, ink and sponges, dimensionals, markers and of course, the White Gel Pen. With the help of those tools, our little Elfie can look more like this:




That's better, right? Oh, yes and I added a bit of sparkle too with some Dazzling Details. What do you think?






Stay tuned and I will show you what exactly I am using this little guy for.......






Happy Sunday!
