All Occasion Punch Art Class

WOOHOO! It’s time for another PUNCH ART CLASS!!!  I’ve been planning some all occasion punch art cards to coincide with the release of the new 2013-2014 Stampin’ Up Catalogue. The main focus of this class is on the 4 new punches; the Hexagon, Pansy, Mosaic and Artisan Label.  All of punches for the class will be available in the new catalogue

 

You’ll get instructions to make 22 Punch Art Cards that you can use throughout the year. There’s a card to suit every sentiment from the Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set. Since the sentiments are stamped on punched pieces and not on the card itself the sentiments are interchangeable. You can wait to add the sentiment when you use the card or leave it blank.   

Here are the details

For those of you who like videos I’ve included a video tutorial for each card.

If you like keeping it quick and simple I’ve included a cheat sheet and card sample for each Punch Art card right in with the step by step written instructions.

The step by step instructions also include a list of suggested sentiments, a supply list, punching instructions and card stock measurements.  

The cost of this class is $25 CAD (at today’s exchange rate that's approximately $23.73 USD)

Please note: This class is available to everyone. Although I design my classes with Stampin' Up demonstrators in mind you don't need to be a demonstrator to order it. And the class is online so it doesn't matter where you live.

Science Experiment

I had planned to post this card today. The tree is made using the Petite Pennants Builder Punch. I also used the modern label for the tree trunk and the jewelry tag punch for the fence. The sentiment is from Word Play. Then came the science experiment. I was reading a thread on SCS about applying glitter to 3D objects and wondered if spray sealer would work. I don't really like using the spray adhesive because it's so sticky.

I sprayed my card with acrylic sealer (available in most craft or hardware stores) It’s gives you the look of versamark with iridescent ice but no warping, way quicker and you can use it for 3D projects. 

I should’ve taken an in between shot. The first time I sprayed, it dried quickly so only a tiny bit of glitter stuck which suited this card more. The second coat gave me complete coverage.  I’m guessing once the card stock was sealed it didn’t soak in and dry as fast. I shook off the excess glitter then sprayed it with two more coats to seal it. On this sample the glitter makes it look like a snow storm but this would be a pretty technique on a more suitable card.
