Assorted large punches enable you to punch out just a part of a printed image - even if you don't have a die-cutting machine! Look at these designs...using the punches above. 3 and 3 1/2" punches have been used for the big baubles from the same cute House Mouse stamped image.
These baubles have been coloured with pencil and layered onto gold (punched with a 3 1/2" scallop circle punch). The image has then been covered with Glossy Accents and set aside to dry -for a few hours! Voila - my mice baubles are rounded and glossy!
I have used Glossy Accent on the Candy Canes on this card too! Perfect to make them look "Sweet".
The line of bows wwas tied usign a bow maker and 7mm Organza ribbon.
The Dangly bits added to the spine of the card have been punched from the same image using a 11/2" punch. I have finished them by embossing the whole disc with a Crystal clear embossing powder.
The corners on this layer were all punched using an inverted corner punch.
This layering was die-cut using a Cuttlebug machine. I have added little jingle bells to the tied twine at the edge for a touch of fun! Glossy Accent to the berries to make them glisten and look fresh.
All these cards are lovely, I especially love the effect of the glossy accents on the baubles.
