MDS Punch Art

I saw a card a long time ago where someone used the butterfly punch to create the body of someone sitting in a swimsuit on the beach. I've always wanted to try it, but the butterfly punch isn't in my collection. Fortunately, it is available in MDS so I decided to try it in there.

The background is Pacific Point and More Mustard. The girl is made with the butterfly punch for the body, a heart punch and a circle punch for the hair, and two circle punches for the hat. The palm tree is a modern label punch turned on it's side for the trunk, and circles for everything else. To make the palm fronds, I punched a Garden Green circle then overlapped it with a Pacific Point circle to create the crescent shape. The blanket is a square punch stretched out, then filled with DSP. To give it perspective, I made two more square punches, made them rectangles, filled them with the More Mustard to match the beach, then turned them at angles to taper the sides of the blanket.
