Flower punch square cards

Found some time to finish of my four flower cards I had started a few weeks ago, I used the punch a bunch punches to create a Rose, Clemitis, Gerber Daisy  and a Cherry Blossom. I then chose a Bo Bunny design paper for my base and various stamps and elements to compliment.
Think I will find some 6x6 shadow boxes and frame these ones so pretty......

My Favourite the ROSE!

and more to come really enjoying making these flowers.......................

love my owls

ok, sorry about the side view, will work it out eventually lol....  Three cards I made using cuttlebug embossing folders mixture of inks and embossing powders, templates and martha stewart punches.

I am working on a few new designs with the punch a bunch flowers at the moment and hope to have them finnished soon to post.  I am also working on the flower making to view at the Scrapbook expo in June were you will be able to puchase the punch bunch punches on PhotoContinental stand just ask for Teena and see my flower making project.
Some of my cards will be on show also on the Australian simply cards magazine stand at the show.
Cheers for now Karen

"Graphic 45 Design Team 2012 Audition"

These are my six submissions for the Graphic 45 Design Team Audition 

ENJOY..............

1. The Grapic 45 Magic of Oz Collection is amazing, I used an assortment of papers from this range and also the graphic 45 door knob I cut out the numbers from the olde curiosity shoppe range and slid in a few photos of my home from across the street and the pathway we call the Yellow brick road ( it leads straight to the pub) lol and thats my dog Molly and my three kids.  I placed this layout in a 12x12 frame and added further embellishments on the outside (No rules)  The Home I picked up at a local gift shop.  This one will be hung in the entrance of my Home Sweet Home.................
