The Punch Bunch is pleased to introduce Punch Blossoms, a unique three-dimensional art form that combines punches and stamps to create beautiful floral arrangements. By combining punches from The Punch Bunch and specialty stamps from Punch Blossoms, enthusiasts can quickly put together cards, scrapbook pages, or other decorative pieces. Punch Blossoms are the creation of Redmond, Washington-based Susan Tierney-Cockburn. Susan has been a "stamper" for over 15 years and has created 3D floral paper art from punches for more than 8 years. She regularly teaches 3D floral paper art at local stamp stores and designs her specialty stamps to combine stamping and punching into a single medium. Her first stamps, called Punch-Ins, are quite popular. The Punch Blossoms concept does not include a frame around the design, so that two or more designs can be combined to create artwork with simple masking techniques so that the end result is quite spectacular -- particularly for scrapbookers. Susan has been married for 35 years and has two daughters.
Also new to The Punch Bunch is designer Janice Nishimoto's beautiful book of 3D Punch Artwork that shows off Hawaiian and Oriental Punch art designs. All of the designs used in this publication can be made from punches available from The Punch Bunch. |
