The Punch is the Thing - SUO Challenge #35

Hello, Stampers! This week's challenge at SUO Challenges is another fun one.....make a punch the star of the show on your creation! At first I was a bit baffled, but then I remembered how many wonderful punches Stampin' Up!® has, and then it came easy.

With Christmas over, now my thoughts are turning to Valentine's Day, so naturally a Valentine's-themed card was necessary. It was hard just letting the punches be the focus, and not adding a stamped image or ribbon and embellishments! Three different punches were used on this card, as well as two items from the 2012 Occasions Mini.

This card is going to Operation Write Home!
