Stamping Sunday - Darling Label Punch

Good Day Crafty Friends,

Welcome to the Stamping Sunday Blog Hop. You are currently visiting Jackie Aitken in Western Australia. This month the Design Team are creating projects using the Darling Label Punch.

This Punch is sold as part of a kit - The Darling Label Punch Box is a tin filled with crafting goodies and is packaged in a gorgeous decorative tin, making it a great item to gift someone who just starting out in the card making journey.

The Kit has the Punch and six stamps, plus ink spots and an acrylic block. All you need to add is card/paper. I have decided to use other stamp sets with this punch, to show how cute and versatile the punched shape can be.

First up is a pocket card. I have kept it very clean and simple, so that the punched shapes taken from the card front are really visible.

I have created a watercoloured background using Granny Apple Green and Coastal Cabana inks, then using the label punch, four punched shapes were removed from a whisper white card and placed over the water coloured card. A few whisper white die cuts made using the Stitched Season Framelits were tucked under the punched out shapes.

The sentiment has been gold heat embossed on Vellum as adhered using Tombow and a sponge. A gold foil dragonfly was added at the bottom as it was just too plain without it.

The inside of the pocket card has a few more dragonflies to tie in with the one on the cover.

For my next project I made little personalised treats for an upcoming class I have at the end of this month. The edible candies will be placed on the tables along with their class project kits.

They were super simple to make using the Pick a Pennant stamp set, which has the alphabet and the little floral image teamed with a few Stampin' Blends and the Label Punch.

I actually ran out of time to complete all 20 name candies so will have to finish the rest off within the next week - plus I saved all the names with the most letters!!!

I am last on the list today, but if you haven't already, be sure to follow the hop all the way through for loads of inspiration and creative ideas using this Punch. A list of the all the blog participants has been provided at the end of each blog, so hopping is as simple as clicking on the next hoppers name.
