Christi's Creative Crew: RHSSC #61

Welcome to the Red Hot Stamper Sketch Challenge for this week

This is the sketch we had to work with...

And this is my take on it...

I had this cute little face sitting on my table left over from my Punch Art Class preparations and thought this would be a fun card to put it on. I guess this little face was my inspiration

So here is a little photo tutorial on how I made the flower...

Punch out 5 Blossom Petals, sponge edges Spritz petals with water

I used Daffodil Delight card stock and Crinkle up all petals as shown

More Mustard Ink

This is what they will look like when you open them up

Stack your petals and pierce a I used a large (5/8") Brad to hold

hole in the center them all together

Now I started crunching again layer by layer

Until it looks like this...

Then start pulling the layers apart until you get the look you want

I attached my little face to the brad with a 3D Adhesive Dot

Now to make the card.

My Daddy used to (and sometimes still does) call me SUNSHINE so this is a dear term to me and comes into play many times in my thoughts and this looked like a sweet little sunshine.

Sunshine belongs in a pretty fluffy-cloud sky so I thought I would show you how I make a cloudy sky for my cards...

You can use any punch you want to shade your cards, so go ahead and be creative, but for clouds I chose to show you 4 different punches and how each cloud would look ...

From Left to right, top to bottom I used 1 3/4" Scallop Circle, Scallop Oval, Medium (1 3/4"x7/8") Oval, and 2 3/8" Scallop circle. I decided I wanted my clouds to be made with the 2 3/8" Scallop Circle. Next time I might just combine the different punches for my sky.
