My card for this weeks Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge is made with several punches. I can't seem to get enough of punches and die cuts-they just make your cards so beautiful. I did the Martha Steward around the page punch and the deep lace border punch. The corners are a sizzx die. I just rhinestones, ribbon, and stickles too! The image is Sadie from D'Amour Allure. Come join us for some fun this week. I'll be around visiting you if you do! Thanks for looking.

OMG Carol, I died with laughter at your comment about becoming the newest punchkateer!! I have to say YOU may have to head the group after reading about your obsession with punches and spellbinders. I got the biggest chuckle ever. All your gifts are punches/spellbinders, you dream of what you can do with them, etc. Do you buy and hide them in place so your family won't know how many you've bought and how much money you've spent like someone would do with cigarettes, alcohol, clothes or shoes????? I am linking my fellow punchkateerz to your comment and I feel 100% positive you will be made a member of this Very Important Club!! LOL!! I have to say, you take the cake on punches and spellbinders. I look in amazement of how many different ones you can fit on a card. I'm going to have to get more serious if I want to compete with the likes of you. Maybe you can oust Benzi as Prez since she not only "punched" her way into our group, but nominated herself Prez. Who knows, the next Prez could be YOU!!! I'm off to link you up. LOL!! I'll be laughing about this one for awhile!!!
