April Punch Art Swap

This is my Punch Art Bunny.
He is made with Stampin Up punches.  Head is 1 3/4 inch circle. Eyes are the word window punch. (punch one cut in half) Ears are 13/4 x 7/8 inch oval (punch 4)
Pink inside ears is 1 3/8 by 7/8 inch oval (punch one cut in half)
Muzzle is 1 inch circle (punch 1) Paws are 3/4 inch circles (punch 2) and the nose is the bottom section of the ornament punch but you could improvise that one.
I used SU! white gel pen for the eyes and Basic Black Marker for the whiskers and paws.

The top of the card is Bashful Blue and the bottom is Pear Pizzazz. Whisper White scallopped circle behind the greeting. 
Now the new cool part!!  I embossed the satin Whisper White ribbon.  I have seen two ways to do this.  One was to mount it on cardstock and run it through the Big Shot in an embossing folder.  I choose to spray it with heavy starch, let it dry and then run it through the Big Shot.  I used the petals folder.  I will try the other way and see which gives a more sharp emboss.
