Sorry my photos are terrible this morning but my new punches are just stunning. If you haven't checked out the Docrafts sale yet do, because they are selling some things amazingly cheaply. I recently ordered a set of 5 (huge) Papermania punches for only £5.99. They were reduced from £49.99!!!Last night I had a little play and used the floral circle punch to create this card and the bookmark below. The circles are punched into white card and then matted on to glitter card which unfortunately you can't really see to it's advantage in the photo.
I can see all kinds of possibilities for these punches. The other punch I played with was a square design and it by punching closely together it made a fabulous ornate border - love it - watch this space!!Challenges:
- Daisy May - circles
- Creative Inspirations - anything but a card
- One Stop Craft Challenge - add some sparkle
Materials used:
- Papermania punch
- glitter card and white card
- gems, peel offs and tassel from stash

super card Ann and great bookmark , just what I need at the moment...thanks for jpining the cdm challenge. janex
Lovely punches Ann and put to very good use but although they are very reasonable to buy I begrudge £3.99 for postage. May see if they have them in my local store which sells Do Craft stuff.
The bookmark is lovely and very elegant as are the cards - as usual :-)

Oh no. I've just bought a load of flower punches - most of which arrived today and now you show me these ones. I haven't seen these and they are just gorgeous. My nearest Docrafts stockist in on Anglesey though, so I think the plastic is safe.Unless I can find some online. Any ideas? You are soooo naughty.
Hi Ann...gorgeous card and bookmark,great bargain with the punches...i got the same set of 5 punches from Docrafts but when i got mine they were £8.99 and i thought that was a bargain...you've done really well.I haven't played with mine much but must say i'm really impressed....anyway thanks for joining us this week at CDM,
