  At Lasting Memories this month our theme is "Switcheroo". 

We often just use sketches as is. Some people take inspiration by flipping it all around.

Your Challenge #605 is to flip this sketch. I've shown it in the original form, but you are to use it in the flipped image I provided.

He's Got Air!

 At Lasting Memories this month our theme is "Switcheroo". 

This week we are looking at 'Punches'. We often just use what a particular tool is meant to be used for like a border punch, then we discard the 'negative part'. But, this week we are switching it up. 

Your Challenge #604 is to use the 'Negative Space' from a punch. Most often we throw those little things away, but sometimes they are also decorative. Please state what you used in case we can't see it.

{I used a Fiskars Upper Crest Border Punch and used it as is on the right border with the Martha Stewart Footlight teal border strip. I used the 'negative space' to frame my title and as a shelf for the word phrases.}
