Punch your Heart out!

Well, not really.. wouldn't want you to do that... but you know what I mean! Punch Away is more like it... especially when making these cool cards created by Deb Valder, all done with punches.

The secret is to first be sure to find your center on the cardstock and begin laying your desired punch shape on the top row. Of course you'll have overlap, then you just trim off the excess to fit desired size.

 

Notice too how she used progressive colors on each card....
