The 3rd challenge for this month's WICKED was to use punches and die cuts. I used only punches and had a lot of fun. I love making the vase out of the ornament punch and I used the 2-1/2" circle punch in bashful blue so the card wouldn't be too dark.
Flowers and stem were cut out by hand and embossed. This is the most perfect stamp set for the flowers. The sentiment is from Upsy Daisy stamp set.
Thanks for looking.

This one was me smile as soon as I saw it! I just got the ornament punch, but I haven't play with it much. You've inspired me, though, to take it out and think outside the box. I love the idea of making a vase. You're right...those flowers are perfect! I love the offset circle punch panel, too. Great layout.

You are on a serious roll this week, Susie! Another gorgeous creation.
Thanks for the tip about the ornament punch. I will have to use that idea (and borrow the ornament punch from one of my customers to do it!).
