Creative Punching - Feb 2008

**Scrappy Doo 2 U** · Subject: Creative Punching - Feb 2008 Tue Feb 05, 2008 2:02 pm

This month's technique is something geared towards beginners, but I believe EVERYONE will love it. It's basic and very simple.
If you are like me when you start out scrapping, you add lots of punches and scissors to your collection, but then when you're done you aren't quite sure what to do with them. This technique will help you look beyond those 'basic' punches and see new creative possibilities.
These techniques do not require a lot of instruction or guidance so I'll just post up the basic idea and an ocassional photo to accompany it.
