Punch Art Photo Collage Go beyond standard scrapbook pages and greeting cards, to create one-of-a-kind custom works of art with your punches. The photo collage that I created here works best in a grid of twelve XL Round N’ Round squeeze punch circles, framed in a shadowbox. Combine a variety of punched photos with shapes to create your own unique designs. Try layering smaller shaped punches on top of the XL circles and adding fun embellishments such as tiny flowers, tags, rubons, brads, and Rain Dots.   Project Created Using: Adhesive Foam Set Round n' Round - Extra Large Round 'n Round - Large Tag, You're It - Large Bling, Bling - Large Round 'n Round - Medium Portable Rotary Trimmer Heidi Grace Designs : 12-71351 Pink Rubon Alphabet Heidi Grace Designs : 12-71346 Aqua Rubon Alphabet Heidi Grace Designs : 12-71618 Oh So Loved Monograms Heidi Grace Designs : 12-70891 Oh So Loved Chipboard Shapes Heidi Grace Designs : 12-71539 Green Flowers Heidi Grace Designs : 12-71535 Aqua Flowers Heidi Grace Designs : 12-70722 Green Brads in Tin Cloud 9 Design: 12-70588 Multi Citrus Raindots Generic Cardstock: Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Pink, Brown Shadowbox Frame   Instructions: 1.
