Just Chillin’

 It happens…everything old is new again. I have a friend that jokes she’s bringin’ back fibers. She does rock the stuff though. However, I am talking about PUNCHES!!  I cannot lie. I was a paper punch hoarder.  I had quite a collection, but to eBay they went! Well, all but about 75 or so . <blush> It’s hard to kick a habit!

I am here to declare punches ARE BACK! well maybe not ALL punches. I am pretty sure the paper doll punches left in stashes are few and far between now though!

Check out your LSS and you will find loads of new border that can custom create wonderful diecut edges to your Daisy Bucket papers! You don’t have to settle for one diecut edge anymore! You can swap out the edges anytime you like. Oh, but you say…”I like the diecut to go all the way AROUND the paper, not just along one edge”.  Well, that too can be remedied! ;)

You Tube is a wonderful thing! check out this great video I came across the other day. I have been punching away at my {DBD} scraps all night coming up with new combinations!! Also, check out the close up below. I experimented with different punches and not all line up like the one in the tutorial, but you can still make great looking finished corners!

when lining up the corners it sometimes helps to flip your punch over and line it up through the die window.
