Ticket to Joy

Photo Details

Poster: mamaxsix

I don't have any stamps to go along with this Nutcracker challenge so I decided to give punch art a go! I pieced together this Nutcracker and added a felt beard. I used ticket punched corners. I think this would be a great card to slide a couple of ballet tickets into!

Fabulous card. Love how you made all your punches work for you and make your design into a real nutcracker. He's almost alive! And your idea of adding a couple of theater tickets is really wonderful.

Thanks for sharing.

Love it! It is amazing! You must have a great talent to be able to "see" this to make it!

Wonderful nutcracker! I'm always impressed (and a little jealous!) when people can look at something and figure out how to make it punch art. I especially love his eyebrows and little pink cheeks. Thanks for sharing!
