  146. Balloon Punch.

    To go from a child in the park with a shiny red balloon , to an adult celebrating years or milestones with multi colored balloons, it is a ” happy punch” . Everyone has had a balloon at one time and it just brings joy , smiles and memories to everyone.

  147. I think it is a draw between circle punches and banner punch. Or maybe it is the retired modern label and word window. Those have been a staple in my collection since they first came out. As you can see, I love them all! Thanks for all the creativity you share with us and the opportunity to win fabulous blog candy. Have fun in Atlanta. Wish I was with you.

I can use it with pastels for baby cards, gold or silver (with lots of dazzling diamonds) for Christmas, in brights for kudos to kids for great work in school or in kraft with linen thread behind it for masculine cards. I use this punch a lot!
