Yesterday I decided to have a play with my punches I had seen this fantastic tutorial by my Fellow Teamie Jane on the Whiff of Joy Inspiration and Tutorial Blog and have wanted to have a go at it for ages.
I have followed Janes layout quite closely for my first effort as I wasn’t that confident but hopefully the next card I make using this technique will be all my own idea. Thanks Jane this was a fab tut easy to follow and I love the results, even thought I was so eager to get on I forgot to ink the edges of the punched flowers etc.
I am sure you recognise that the image is one of Lili of the Valley’s awesome Fairys , she has been coloured with Copics, and the Magnolia paper seemed to be a perfect match. The Red & White Cherry Blossom, and 30mm White Rose & Rosebuds are from Wild Orchid Crafts, the flat back pearls are from The Hobby House.
I am off to the outlet centre this morning for a bit of retail therapy!!

This is beautiful Jacqui. I've been meaning to try Jane's tutorial for ages but never gotten round to it. You've inspired me to try it this weekend.
Stunning as usual Jacqui, love all the white and punched details. Enjoy a fab day out!
WOW Jacqui it is stunning! so thrilled you liked the tutorial. This fairy looks amazing peeping out and I love the colours you've used! hugs, Jane xxx

Hi Jacqui!
Ha ha! Have fun on the best therapy ever!!! I will go tomorrow, with my friend Marit. We have an appointment for therapy in a small, but original craft shop, hihi, I'm sure we'll feel better afterwards.
I love this card you made here!!! Very beautiful and I don't mind at all that you didn't ink the edges, maybe even better this way in the all-white! It looks fairytale-like, very pretty!!
Hugs, Wendy

ooo Jacqui this is a stunning creation! I love the red/white and sparkle and immediately thought what a wonderful Christmas card she would make! I must try to remember and also have a go at the punched elements around the edges of the aperture - I still have several aperture cards left from my x-stitching days so this would be a great way to use them up!
have fun shopping!
