Look Ma, no stamps! This is for the WT106 challenge found here, Forums at Splitcoaststampers *An Image with Punch!* The challenge was to create an image using punches. This card uses 7 different punches- can you find them all? If you give up, check below for the answers!
I created my own version of Faux Suede paper by swiping a Versmark pad on Creamy Caramel CS, dipping into Heat 'n Stick powder, then into White Stampin' Flock. Then I pressed the CS into a Creamy Caramel inkpad. I thought this gave the moose a more realistic, velvety texture. His eyes are black brads and tiny Swarovski crystals. A larger crystal is in the center of the snowflake, which is punched out of white CS covered with Iridescent Ice EP and DD glitter. The *I* in Christmoose is dotted with a large ruby crystal.
The whole card is dusted lightly with spray glue and DD glitter. Could I make a C'mas card without giltter? I doubt it! This is so much more sparkly IRL. I think I will make a simplified version of this for my April CCC07 C'mas cards.
Thanks for looking!

Very cute! Oh, now I'm feeling I need a leaf punch too. I"ve always been able to talk myself out of it, but after such a cute example, gotta have it so I can make reindeer!
