The challenge is to create a scene incorporating punches.
-The flower is two heart punches the same design for both the large pink and small black petals. The inside is a ½” circle punch. The leaves are made with a circle punch and so are the blades of grass.
-The bunny is all done with circle punches. A post it note was a perfect tool to hold the small pieces. I punched the ears three times, once was punching a partial circle then the post it note held it so I punch in the opposite direction to form the ear shape. The third punch was to shape the bottom to fit to the head and I also used this procedure to for the head to fit to the body. The tail head and body were tool distress to give a fluffy effect.
-All the punched pieces except the black and grass blades were ink distressed.
-The hills were formed with a curved cut with scissors on designer paper then I faux stitched the edges.
-I used a hand made acetate template to sponge on my cloudy sky.
Tools: Two hearts punches, 1 ½”, 1” and ½” circle punches, paper perforator for tool distressing, Cuttlebug, Herringbone and Christmas Ornaments embossing folders, Stampin Up mat pack, Bazzill piercer, post it note

Into my favourites with this one 'cos it's just sooo sweet. And thanks for the idea about using a post-it to hold things for partial punching. I was trying and trying yesterday, and gave up.
