Decorative Punches Week!

Hello MLS fans! Welcome back from a fantastic Thanksgiving weekend. We hope you enjoyed a beautiful holiday with friends and family.

This week we are doing something special for you on the MLS blog. It's a week long look at inspiration using decorative punches along with our collections.

All this week our designers will be sharing some special assignments they created using a variety of decorative punches.

Grace's Notes:

I created a scallop border around my page using the scallop border punch from EK Success. I love how easy it is to create intricate designs in our pages with the use of border punches. I also added some emphasis to my title by cutting the “braces” design punched initially on cardstock using the Fiskars border punch.

Next up is...

Thanks for giving a hoot card

Supplies Used:

French Lace, Heirloom, and Rose Ribbon patterned paper.

Liz's Notes: For my card I used a Fiskar's border punch to create several layers of the pink paper in our Vintage Shop collection. This is a fun way to add texture to your projects. I also used our French Lace paper to create a mosiac look for the background. Inking the edges of squares gives them depth as well.

 

Thanks to Grace and Liz for today's inspiration.

Join us tomorrow for Tutorial Tuesday with designer Robyn Schaub. Our next Decorative punches projects will be featured on Wednesday so be sure and visit us daily here at the MLS blog.

Have a creative day!
