Oval Punch Make n' Take

Okay, now that I am over the trauma of today ;-)...here is the second make n, take from last night.



I want to say first up that the idea for the flower was inspired by a sheet of punch ideas I saw (but apparently did not download) on Splitcoaststampers at some point in the not too distant past. I searched high and low for these again tonight, so that I could reference their creator, but after 30 minutes I gave up. I am pretty sure that when I saw them arranged like this they were part of a turkey (as in a Thanksgiving Day turkey)...and they were his tail. So, if anyone knows what/where I got them from I'd really appreciate you letting me know. I'll post the link here, AND make a copy for myself because there were some AWESOME ideas for things to make with punches.

Just briefly now, the colours are: Always Artichoke, More Mustard, Whisper White, Ruby Red and Pumpkin Pie. The stamp on the More Mustard layer is from the Bud Basics stamp set in the Summer Mini. I have also distressed the edges of this layer. I've used both the small and large oval punches...lots. The stem is from the Rustic Retreat Ribbon Originals. The 'thanks' sentiment is from the Small Sayings stamp set in the Summer Mini. As I only wanted to use part of the stamp I inked it up using a Ruby Red Stampin' Write Marker, instead of a stamp pad. There is SNAIL, a glue dot and ONE dimensional only (underneath the centre petal, at the top)!! WOW. That is a break-through for me :-).

And, that is all there is to this card!
