The Stampin up Bird Punch is the handiest punch I have ever owned. So many things can be made with it.

*****************************Marti you sure made a pretty card with that bird punch. It's gorgeous! I like how you used punched wings to make the tulip petals and the stem and leaves punch to make tulip stems and leaves. It really is a versatile punch alright.
It's a pity the Stampin' Up! bird punch is now retired. I don't think I will part with the one I have.
Thank you for taking the time to share with all of us :) I wish more people would share their ideas too!
Happy Punching!
Susan

There is so much that you can make with punches and it is very inspiring to see other people's ideas for how to use them. Thinking outside the original use for your punches can really extend the use of your tools and allows you a creative outlet as well. You really get your money's worth when you bring your imagination to the table and use your punches in clever new ways.
I love to see everyone's projects too. So please take this as my personal invitation to you to share!
I will continue to share projects I create by using my punches with you as well. In fact, I found a few Youtube clips about how to use the Bird Punch differently:
