Today’s layout is the third in our three-part series featuring tips for using punches \u00a0in ways you may never have thought of.\u00a0This layout features stars assembled together to create a wreath as well as adding a little decorative fun flair, too!<\/p>\n
Here’s what you’ll need to create it:<\/p>\n
Step 1: Cut a piece of tan paper to measure 5″ square.<\/p>\n
Step 2: Using Place ‘n Punch, punch 8 star shapes from each green cardstock and green patterned paper.<\/p>\n
Step 3: Using Border\u00a0Maker with Star\u00a0Cartridge, punch\u00a0along entire edge of red patterned paper to create several red star shapes.<\/p>\n
Step 4: On tan square, adhere 8 green patterned stars into a circle. Adhere green cardstock stars\u00a0over patterned stars using large Foam Squares. Adhere small red stars to wreath using small Foam Squares. Adhere square to upper right corner of page.<\/p>\n
Step 5: Cut a piece of green cardstock to measure 7″ x 5″. Adhere to top left corner of page.<\/p>\n
Step 6: Cut red star-punched strip (punched previously to create red stars) to measure 1-1\/8″ wide x 7″ high. Cut a strip of green cardstock to measure 1″ wide x 7″ high. Adhere green strip to backside of star strip and adhere to lower right edge of page.<\/p>\n
Step 7: Cut a piece of green patterned paper to measure 6.5″ x 4.5″. Adhere to center of page as shown.<\/p>\n
Step 8: Cut a piece of red patterned paper to measure 4-3\/8″ wide x 4.5″ high.<\/p>\n
Step 9:\u00a0Using Border Maker with Star\u00a0Cartridge, punch\u00a0along one 4-3\/8″ edge of red piece. NOTE: we punched only twice to avoid having half a star punched near the bottom.<\/p>\n
Step 10: Cut a piece of green cardstock to measure 1″ x 4.5″. Adhere green strip to backside of punched red piece\u00a0and adhere to\u00a0left center of page as shown.<\/p>\n
Step 11: Using scissors, hand trim journal block design from Slide-In Card, then adhere to red punched piece as shown.<\/p>\n
Step 12: Cut a piece of tan cardstock to measure 10-7\/8″ x 2.5″. Adhere to lower left of page.<\/p>\n
Step 13: Cut a thin strip of green cardstock to measure 10-7\/8″ x 1\/4″. Adhere along center of tan strip.<\/p>\n
Step 14: Using scissors, trim “DECEMBER” art from slide-in card, then adhere to green cardstock. Trim around using scissors, then adhere to page using Foam Squares to finish.<\/p>\n
NOTE: Black cardstock was used to show where photos would go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
