10 FUN IDEAS WITH CIRCLE PUNCHES

 

I have delved back into my older stash in a quest to give some of my YouTube subscribers some fresh ideas with generic craft "tools" which they might already have in their craft rooms. Today I've grabbed a bunch of different sized circle punches and got to work. This was so much fun! I have a list the length of my arm but have narrowed it down to the first 10 for my video which you can see here..


If you thought you needed dies to create cards like these, think again! 

It's quite a long video but I hope you enjoy watching. I will have more videos showing specific fun things to make with Circle Punches but these will be shorter (I hope!)
Today's 10 ideas include a things which you may have thought required dies, one where you do not even see any circles but they are needed for the mechanism, and one where I have used different sizes of circles to create a template which can be used multiple times to create a beautiful sky background....and more!

I'd love you to watch the video and subscribe to my channel (that's free!). Please do leave me a little comment on my video to let me know which was your favourite :)
Many thanks for watching :)

MAKE A TREE BRANCH FAIRY HOUSE with twig ladder

 

I had been gathering some bits and pieces from nature walks and finally put them all together and made another fairy house from the branch of a tree. 

I used a wood slice for the base, added the branch on top and decorated with twigs, fir cones, beech nuts, pebbles, moss and sycamore wings. 

You can see how I made it in my video here

Z FOLD POP UP CARD


This is my latest video

I hope you can adapt this style of card to whatever papers and dies you have in your stash. If you do not have a die cutting machine, this would also work perfectly with rectangles instead of the ovals. As I mentioned in the video, fussy cutting is a great way to get the maximum from your paper pads.

Enjoy :)
