This punch art puppy is made from Stampin' Up punches. The dog house card folds at the top. I attached the green roof to hide the fold.
Head-1 1/4" circle, face and body-wide oval, legs and feet small oval, ears and eye patch-word window, grass-small star, name sign and bone-modern punch.
I filled these Santa pillowbox ornaments with treats to hang in the Christmas Tree. Cut a pillowbox out of Real Red cardstock. Cut a scallop circle from Whisper White and fold the top over to make the hat band.
To make the face, punch a wide oval and 1/2" circle from Blush Blossom. Sponge on some pink for colour. Cut two of the petals from the 5 petal punch to make the mustache.
I was cleaning out some old stuff and came across the first punch art card I ever made. I earned the Alphabet stamp set with the Stampin' Start promotion and borrowed most of the punches. It's only been 3 years since I started with Stampin' Up but it feels like forever-ago.
The layout of this card was based on a children's story book I saw when I was in college and used this layout every Spring for my bulletin board.
I made this poor little fella while on summer vacation and he's been living in a ziploc baggie ever since. I thought it might be time for him to make it onto a card.
He's made from Stampin' Up punches. Head-wide oval,feet & mouth-small oval, tummy-large oval, nose and inner ears-1/4" circle, ears 1/2" circle, neck-word window, body-1 3/4" circle, hands-trio flower, teeth-double rectangle, tree-snowflake punch.
The tree trunk and mouse's legs are cut free hand. To make the book cut a piece of Real Red cardstock 1.5 x 2". Trim the top and bottom slightly to make a V shape.
To make the string of lights I cut the bulbs with the Tree Decorations sizzlit and poked holes around the tree trunk to string in silver cord. It doesn't show up in the photo but I added dazzling diamonds to the tree branches and snowdrifts then covered the light bulbs and the mouse's nose with crystal effects.

This was my first chance to play with my sweet treat cups. To make the gingerbread man I traced the shape from a cookie cutter. The card ended up being a little top heavy so I made some 3D cardstock gifts at the bottom of the card for support. Next time I'll fold my card at the top instead of the side.
My Little Piggy card was made with SU punches and some Designer Series Paper.
Here's a card I made using faux snow. You can make your own with scraps of white cardstock and a cheese grater. Here's a short tutorial.
This is my favorite projects so far made with Stampin' Up's new Table Setting die. Cut out the napkin ring, score it just below the bumps, fold, tie a ribbon around the whole thing and you have yourself a quick and easy gift card holder. I attached a gold cord to this one using the thingy?? from the die so my gift card could be hung in a tree. On the back I cut out an ivory tag and stamped a sentiment.
This was another card made with the table setting die.I folded the napkin ring in half to form the card. For the skirt I punched out 10 scallop ovals and attached them to the front and back so the card would stand up. The collar is made with the scallop circle and the 1" punch. On the inside I used the tag from the table setting die folded in half to hide the edges of the scallop ovals.

I've included lots of photos as well as written instructions so these cards can be completed in a class setting. To keep it simple this set is made using 12 sheets of colored cardstock and 2 sheets of Whisper White with plenty of scraps left over to use for punching. The instructions come in two separate pdf documents, the first one detailing the instructions for each punch and the second contains instructions to assemble the cards.
