Amazing Circle Medallion

Ya ever see something every once in a while that just makes your jaw drop and the word "WOW!" come out of your mouth??? This circle medallion totally did that to me. Lynn (Lynn in St. Louis) hosted TLC193 and showed us this amazing fun technique. Here is a link to the medallion creator, the amazing Becca Stamps. She did a really great tutorial on it:

Love it! The leaves against the punch look fantastic, great take on the challange. Okay I am here in Salt Lake, so which store did you find the punch at?

Hey, Jo! I got my corner punch at the Michael's in Sugarhouse (I was skunked at both Roberts and Paper Creations!!)!

This is a totally awesome card Wendy. Such beautiful fall colors and the way your leaves peek out from behind the sentiment is genius! Hey, the way I figure it is that you would have to buy A LOT of punches to make up from the enabling you have caused me! *wink*
