I bought the punch needle kit back in the fall and just today decided to try it out. The lady at my LNS (Strawberry Sampler) was nice enough to show me how to do it, although that lesson was far in the recesses of my memory. I did get the knack of it and turned out this ‘pink’ ribbon. For some reason I grabbed a brownish pink, probably because I didn’t think I’d actually finish the project in one night. I think it’s not half bad for a first try. (update 2/27-I pulled out the incorrect color at the very top and redid-in 5 minutes. I may pick a pinker pink for the rest-it’s really easy to fix).  The only real pain was threading the needle. It comes with a hair thin wire with a loop on the end. Perhaps that reminded me of the needle they used on me in November-I remember it was pretty thin like this. I have another design-more folk art of a cat and a pumpkin I will have to do next!

It’s a limited edition pink punch needle to benefit the Susan G Komen foundation.
I’ve made a few ATCs in the past week too. I ran some printed scrapbook paper (with music scales) through the printed and printed some photos on it. I got some interesting results:

The baby’s photo just happen to print out right between the music notes! I used teal color tissue paper with a little glimmering chalk over it. Both my photos look a little out of focus. Hmmmm…guess I was going to close.
