I recently received the most beautiful card from fellow SCSer Cherylquilts. In fact, I liked it so much I went on the hunt for the retired SU set Toile Blossoms. The set arrived in this week's mail (thank goodness that at least some of my trips to the mailbox yield results, eh Ben-Benzi?) and I think I'm going to have great fun with it. (Thanks to SCSer craf-tee for getting that set to me pronto...!)
Made up a quick birthday card for a friend with kraft and black and a little bit of colouring with my SU markers. Did some piercing in the corners of the image layer. There is a punched panel on the inside so as to avoid a run-in with the Punch Police...
Thanks for stopping by....thanks for the inspiration Cheryl... Hugz...
Punchez tally for the Punchkateerz Polize: only one
(but poking all those holes in nice straight lines has to count for something. After all, what is punching if it isn't poking holes in paper with sharpened metal objects?)

Izzy, I'm just loving this beautiful image and what you're doing with it. I don't know about the punching of holes counting toward the 'real' thing. But, that piercing does look mighty fine. It may get by this time. Love your wonderful layout and lovely work. Enjoy your trip! I see that little jab about the mailbox.

Don't listen to the Benzi, I certainly think all that there perfect paper piercing counts - each single hole counts as 1 pound!!! You ought to be mighty slim by now Diz. This is a BEAUTIFUL card. I LOVE that image Diz and you carried it over to the envie! This is pure stamping at it's best!!! Hugz!!
