Blossom Punch Card

The flowers were done with SU's Blossom Punch.  The stamped image is from the Mixed Bunch stamp set.

Blossom Punch Card

This is one of  Dawn Griffith's cards she demonstrated on her blog.  There's a video with complete instructions available.

It's a good way to use up patterned ribbon you may have laying around.  The card takes way less than 30 minutes to complete.

Tightwad Tip -- Liquid "Brads"

Have you ever assembled a card and realized you forgot to add some brads?  Today I was making a few quick cards with a Stampin' Up Blossom Punch.  The center of the flower is a large white brad and I wanted to repeat the brads on the yellow background.  I was distracted and adhered the yellow background to the card front without inserting the brads.

So, I grabbed a bottle of Slick paint and made two small dots on the card.  Then gently tapped the card with my fingernail to flatten the dots into liquid "brads". 

Can you tell which is a brad, and which are the dots of paint?
