Punched Flower Card

Hi Everyone! Just a card I made last night. Just a simple layout. I was playing around with my oval punch and created the flower.

Do you buy the Paper Craft magazine? I still buy it but since I've discovered blogging, the creations in magazines are no longer as impressive as those I see on blogs. I still purchase the magazine because the card samples in Paper Craft are "scrappy cards" and I don't know too many blog sites that post cards other than rubber stamped cards.

Do you know of any blog sites that post card creations that are not rubber stamped. . .you know, blogs that post "scrappy cards"? If you do. . .please comment and add the link of the blog sites. I would love to visit sites for inspirations.

I'm primarily a rubber stamper and I'm trying to master "scrappy cards". . .LOL! Any inspirations will be helpful!!

Card Details:

Accessories: Colorbok chipboard, Heidi Swapp Heart chipboard, Colorbok designer paper, SU oval and Key Tag punches, Grosgrain ribbons, ATD designer paper, SU Wild Wasabi and Chocolate chip cardstock

I luv your scrappy cards & this one is great! Luv that flower!

Love your pink flower card! I am with you on magazines- with the advent of the net it is faster to surf eye candy then to buy a magazine. Plus if you have a question the artist is more likely to respond to a comment or question about their work.

Your scrappy cards are awesome Maria and I love the results of using your punch!!!!! In my opinion, you have mastered scrappy cards. Making these cards are not easy and your finished projects are awesome!

p.s. I hope these pain management sessions help, I have pinched nerves in the worse possible areas.(neck and back) I think one day I will have to have surgery to help relieve the pain.

Hi Maria:

Your card is darling. I too love PC and would love to do scrappy cards. I do read lots of scrappy card blogs yet I'm still too afraid to try doing them. I think you'll love these.
