Punching!

I got some wire from Joann's the other day to try and make a threader for my Cameo. For just $2 it was worth it to try and get some punching done since I had the urge. Isn't that always the way? Its not perfect, but it will work. I sat on the couch with hubs and the animals, and did some punching while watching Grimm.

I'm trying a different punching technique. I ran out of one of the orange colors so moved on to the background. I have to pick out colors for the tongues yet. I would have done more, but holding the Cameo really hurts my hand. I think I need to get one of those rubber grip things for pencils. That might help.

Oops, sending pics from my phone is always dangerous. Yes, it's a pumpkin. : )

Love your pumpkin. I'm already in the mood for fall, but I keep seeing all these lovely fall crafts and it's making me want it to arrive all the more!

Lol, Michelle! Glad I wasn't the only one that didn't know what crow hooky was! I had to ask. It's crocheting! :) Never heard it referred to as that in my life!
