Oh That Nancy! She makes me cry, and then she gives me a belly laugh! Ok, here we go. Nancy and I started challenging each other last July- and it keeps getting more crazy! Ok, this was her idea- to make a card completely from materials at Lowe's, or any hardware store. And look what she did!
OMGosh, we got such a chuckle from this Nancy! Bubba is really impressed with your tie dye duct tape. He said "Now that, is special"! Lol.
I know your Punchkateers will flip to see your ingenuity! Dang, that's a lotta punches Sistah! Whew!
OK, now I have to try to get mine done. Don't know if I can come close to this! You so rock, you know that, right?
LYMI. Lowe's? Nut!

OMG, Nancy thinks of everything. For a second, I thought the sentiment said,
'Count the Hippies'. Maybe because of that tie dye duct tape. Yes, she made this one 'punch city'. I'll be watching for yours, Pat. Quite a challenge!

Hey thanks for this great picture you posted of the card - you worked magic with the camera because I know what the card looks like in person. This is seriously the craziest card I have ever made - that challenge just about did me in and I thought of it. It seemed so cool when they did it on Project Runway!
I can't wait to see your card!
I think you definitely need to design the next challenge.

Wow, that Nutzi sure knows how to be CREATIVE!! I can't believe this and I bet this did about do her in. Ooooh, you have a tough act to follow Pat. Your need to post the one you do with pnz so us here Punchakteerz can take a vote to see who the winner is. You know, if you add a few more punches than Nutzi, you may just win the prestigious Punchkateer Award which, basically, means nothing, but we can pretend it does!! Maybe we'll get you a tie dye t-shirt if you win. Who knows!!! I wouldn't count on any free punchez from our Prez Benzi though. She claims to be so rich, but not a one of us has received a free punch yet!! I really ENJOY Nutzi's creativity on this card and the punch overload!! Hugs!

This card may seem crazy to you, Nutzi, but it's crazy CLEVER!! I had to read Pat's description again to "get" that this is all HARDWARE store stuff!! What a hoot!! And so very, VERY creative of you. And it is super duper pretty, too. Wow!! Great work, Nutzi! And thanks for sharing, Pat
