I told my students this week that 2012
was the date for science fiction when I was a kid.
was the date for science fiction when I was a kid.
Do you remember Twilight Zone?
Oh yeah, scary stuff and now we're there ...
On to my not so scary lion!
I'm starting the year practicing punch art.
Always admire everyone's punch art talent and decided to give it a try.
Based this on Loving Lion by Kim at Paper Punch Addiction.
I didn't have the same punches so I subbed the new punch Blossom
(now available in the New SU! Occasions mini catalog)
for the lion's mane. I also used the 2-step owl punch and the 2-step bird punch.
