strawberry crafts Click image to enlarge Designer: Lisa Storms My kids love to use my punches! When I'm working on projects they are always asking if they can punch anything for me. So I decided to come up with a cute project they could make for their friends or teachers at school. The 'My Funny Valentine' punch makes the sweetest little strawberries that are fun to decorate or turn into a really cool pencil topper! Difficulty rating
Instructions (Print version)  Thanks Berry Much Card 1. Create card base and mount white rectangle centered on front. 3. Punch 'May Flowers' punch from green cardstock and add to top of strawberry slightly bending leaves up to resemble strawberry leaves. Variations  1. Punch brown heart, crop, and adhere over strawberry to resemble chocolate dipped strawberry.
 Pencil Topper The pencil topper is not only cute, it can be a fun way to practice math! The amount of hearts you will need will depend on the weight of your cardstock and the thickness of your individual pencil. Here I used a lightweight non-textured cardstock and a regular #2 pencil. 1. Punch four sets of ten hearts from red cardstock.  3. Once you have all forty hearts adhered together, wrap around pencil to be sure it will fit. If not, add more until you have the right size. Tip: If your wrap ends up too wide, you can add glue dots between the topper and pencil to be sure it stays secure. 4. Punch 'Oopsie Daisy' from green cardstock and punch ΒΌ" hole at center.
