Tarheel Stamper - Zoo Animals Punch Instructions

“Zoo” Animal Crackers Box Punched Animals

I have included a photo with tips below of the pieces needed for the animals on this box posted here. I made a “sticky” stick to help me pick up and place the small pieces.  LOL  I used a lollipop stick from a craft or big box store.  I put a dab of Tombow Multi-Purpose glue (see end of post for more info on this glue) on the flat end and let dry.  While it was drying, I left it in an upright position so the glue would not run off.  After drying, I dabbed my finger on top of the dried glue several times to cut down on the stickiness.  Otherwise it tore my paper when I tried to pick up the stick from placing the piece down.  Clear as mud right?  LOL

I am including  links below to a pdf if you want to print the instructions.  Instruction is used loosely because I did not label every punched piece.  I just could not spend that much time to type all that information.  I think you can figure out the sizes and the punches which were used on each animal.  I have the supplies used below.  Enjoy and if you have a question click on contact me.  I will try to help.

I have a video on punch tips here which shows how to punch the elephant trunk and tiger stripes along with how to punch longer tags.  Also I show how to get a ball on each end of the jewelry tag punch.  I will post a card soon using that method for a sentiment.

Punch Art Stamp Camp Projects

Gathered these ideas from some very talented ladies.  Connie Babbert came up with the idea of the Owl pouch.  I used a pouch tutorial on SplitCoast Stampers for my pouch and used punches I had for the Owl.  I didn't have the large flower punch she orginally used for the eyes.  The lion link is in a previous post.  I forgot where the baby buggy idea came from.  It is so cute.  Anyway we are making these Saturday at my stamp camp.  If you are in or near Kings Mountain NC and want to come, email me!  Have a great day!

Stampin' Up! Punch Art Scrapbook Page Turtle and Frog

I needed to make some quick scrapbook pages for a Ronald McDonald house project so I thought about punch art.  I will share a girls page tomorrow.  I searched and found some cute animals on Splitcoast Stampers.  I do not know who came up with the original ideas for these, but if it was you please email me and let me know and I will give credit to you. 

The turtles were made with:

1 - 1 3/4" circle Always Artichoke
1 - 1 3/8" circle Old Olive
1 - 3/4" circle Always Artichoke
4 - 1/2" circles Always Artichoke
7 - 1/4" circles Barely Banana
2 - 1/4" circles Whisper White
2 - 1/8" circles Basic Black

for tail - punch one 3/4" circle from Always Artichoke and then cut a 1/2" circle in the shape of a semi circle (smile I call it)  Cut that in half and attach for tail.  I forgot to put that piece in the photograph below. You can see a similar piece in the frog pieces photograph.  I sponged Always Artichoke on the green pieces except for the tail.

                                             

For the Frog you will need:

1 - 1 3/4" circle Always Artichoke

1 - 1 3/8" circle Old Olive

2 - 3/4" circles Always Artichoke

2 - 1/2" circles Whisper White

2 - 1/4" circles Basic Black

2 - small flowers from Boho Blossoms punch Always Artichoke

2 - small ovals Always Artichoke

1 - large oval Always Artichoke

For smile - cut 3/4" Basic Black and then cut 1/2" circle form that in a smile shape.  Sponge green pieces with Always Artichoke.

For eyes the Always Artichoke circles are glued behind the oval and the white and black in front of the oval.

                                    

                                     

The scrapbook page is Barely Banana 12" x 12" with an 8 1/2" x 11" Old Olive card stock piece layered on top.  The letters are a sizzix alphabet die.
