Litte Birdhouse Cards

As many of you know, I love punches and am always on the lookout to obtain retired once that I wasn't able to snag when they were current.

I have a list with those I want to own if I can find them at reasonable prices. Several on my list are of course by SU. Sometimes I can find one on ebay but usually the pricing is ridiculous.

Well thanks to my SU rep (thanks again Doris!) I have been able to cross off 2 punches from my wish list. Last month I was able to get my SU snowflake punch through her help and this month the My Way Arrow punch.

For me it's Christmas when I have a new punch to play with. Unfortunately work has been too hectic lately and I haven't had much time to play, but I did manage to finish my fist punch art project using the My Way Punch.

I think these turned out rather cute and they were quite fast and simple to make.
