CSF Saturday Blog Hop - Punched Backgrounds

 Good Morning, Stampers!

Welcome to the Create with Stampin' Friends

Saturday Blog Hop! This week, the team is creating 

backgrounds using punches! We hope you enjoy 

what we have to share with you!

I created this wedding card featuring the Petal Park Builder

punch and the Distressed Tile embossing folder with a bit of

a shabby-chic look. I took an old technique with the punched flowers

that give them the look of suede and it's so easy to do! 

Simply punch the flowers (or any shape) and crumble them up in your

hand really well. Once you start breaking up the fibers of the

paper, you will see the paper start to pull apart. Gently pull 

each flower apart and the inside leaves the paper with a 

suede-like texture - so pretty! I then glued them to the 

embossed background and added the Metallic Enamel Effects

to the top of each of the flowers. It dries fairly quickly and

leaves the look of shimmery lacquer.
