Congrats, Becca! Loved your gallery and I was fascinated by your corner punched circles. I picked Lace Tree to case. I changed the punches, the images and the colors. But I kept the layout and the corner punched circle.
I didn't use the EK type corner punch w/ the removable whatchamacallit. But the regular corner punches have little plastic inserts that remove just as easily. So I followed Becca's directions and punched my nestie circle. I've this ribbon for a while and I just figured out why I haven't used it. It's a really tough color to work with. Just to the purple side of pink. I sponged the azalea ink onto white c/s and cut a circle to back my punched circle. I used a smaller circle to back the sentiment circle which is the smallest nestie circle, silver embossed w/ the greeting (LE). I added a pink rhinestone brad in the center and ribbon as shown.
The aqua bg is punched w/ a MS snowflake embossing border punch and stamped w/ the snowflakes (SC) and silver ink. This is attached to a sort of mauve colored card. TFL
