Good Morning Everyone! Today's Tuesday Tip shows you how to stretch your Big Shot Dies further. A perfect example is the Adirondack Chair from the Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies. Although it's fantastic as is, you can create additional objects with just a few snips and cuts. The top of the chair forms a fence in two different sizes and the bottom becomes a table and a basket. By thinking outside of the box, your creativity is unlimited! Happy Stamping!

As promised, here is the tutorial for making the rosebud using the Two Step Bird Punch from the latest mini catalogue: Step 1 - Cut a strip of green cardstock (old Olive used here) about 3 cm (1 1/4") wide, this will save your cardstock and make rotating the 'hole' possible. Step 2 - Insert the strip of cardstock from the right hand side of the punch and punch as shown above - you need the hole the end of the tail leaves. Step 3 - Turn the cardstock over and insert fron the left hand side of the punch with the 'tail hole' in the window for the wing as shown above. Step 4 - Punch a wing only from red cardstock (Real Red used here) and adhere the green wing with the hole in it over the red wing to form the calex of the rose. Step 5 - Punch a leaf from the green strip and adhere just the top leaf over the rose as shown above - et voila, you have a rosebud. To see the rosebud used on a card go to this post. I hope you enjoy making your rosebuds and as always, comments motivate me to write tutorials :-) Have a great day Lynette

There are many creative uses for medallions. And doing this has spawn a couple of other ideas. I am working on those ideas now. I love my Martha Stewart punch sets. I keep playing hoping to discover a new trick..Here is one. Here are the different medallions you can achieve using the different designs of the corner punches. Product List: Any corner punch from the Punch around the page sets Card stock paper trimmer or (ruler and craft knife) Tweezers These are just some of the designs that you can achieve using the different corner punch designs. Using your paper trimmer, cut 1 1/2 inch strips of card stock. Take your 1 1/2 inch strips and cut them into 1 1/2 inch x 1 1/2 inch squares. With the bottom of the punch facing you, take your square shape and carefully slide it into the punch corner side down. Slide the square down so that the corner of the sqaure matches and is even with the bottom corner of the punch. It will just about rest on the corner, and must be exact. Punch down. Pull the square out and rotate the square so that the next corner is ready to be punched. Turn it once again and punch. At this point, you may have a better handle on the square if you hold it with tweezers. Turn once again to punch the last corner. This is your finished madalion. This is a layout I did where I used the medallions on top of a punched strip. Let us know what other ideas you have for these medallions. I would love to hear!!
