Cat/Art Studio

I am featuring the Mixed Bunch stamp set and the Blossom Punch in my STAMP CLUBS this month so I thought I would add some additional samples on my blog ~ ones that you wouldn't see if you visited the Cat/Art Studio.

Isn't this 'kissing' ball gorgeous?  I took this picture at Leadership in January and I think it is so pretty.  When I was very young I made a kissing ball at Christmas out of ribbon.  My Mom added mistletoe and hung it on the light fixture near the front door!  That's why I called it a kissing ball but I am sure it has another name.  Let me know if you know another name, ok?

This one is made using a styrofoam ball from a craft store, the Mixed Bunch stamp set (#125537, clear, or #125535, wood) on page 17 in Stampin' Up!'s Occasions Mini Catalog.  This set has a matching punch that is so easy to use.  It is the Blossom Punch, #125603.  The flowers are stamped, punched and attached to the styrofoam with a pin.  The center is stamped, punched and glued on over the pin.  And, I love the colors, can you tell????  Thanks for stopping by ~ more tomorrow!
