PUNCH KOALA CHRISTMAS!

I made this special Christmas card for my blog pal Patti in the US. I thought she might like a little Australian Christmas. I know I can share it now because she has received it. The idea was CASED from a sample on a Convention board a couple of years ago so sorry I don’t know who to give credit too. If you know then let me know.

A number of punches were used to create my little Koala. I had fun playing around getting his shape right.

1 3/4″ circle, 1 3/8″ circle, 1 1/4″ circle, 1″ circle, Extra-Large Oval, Large Oval, 2 step Bird Punch, 2 step Owl Punch, Boho Blossoms, Itty Bitty Shapes pack, Word Window Punch. His kerchief was made with a 2cmx2cm square of red card. I also added some sponging and a little Dazzling Diamonds with 2 way glue pen and used white gel pen for his eyes and black marker for his mouth. I think that about covers it. He is very cute.

For the rest of the card, the greeting is from ‘Wishing You’ and I cut the edge of the Gumball Green card with the zig-zag edge from the Finishing Touches Edgelits. Just a little strip of Gumball Green Satin Stitched Ribbon finishes it off.

Happy Christmas Patti. Happy Christmas to all my blog readers. I appreciate all of you who stop by and visit me. I hope to share lots more in 2014 so keep visiting. 🙂
