Using your "old, unused" punches

Hello Scrapbook friends! So glad you can join us today. This is Jennyfer from Jennyfer Creates.

Are you on Pinterest like me? Let me tell you that Pinterest is one of the most addictive sites and there's lots to share... I wanted to share with you some of the stuff I have found using your "old. unused" punches.

Tip of the day: Think outside the box!!!

This is my Pinterest board called Punch Art. If you see it closely, you will find that these fellow crafters have used their punches to make things that I, myself, would never have thought of.

The example below shows us how to take owl, circle, border punches and make this darling giraffe bookmarker. How cute is that?!?!

With the introduction of dies and die cut machines, we tend to forget our well-loved punches, like I sometimes do.


Hope that you will find some more pins that you can add to your board!
I hope your enjoyed today's project too. If you have a question, please leave it in the comments, and a DT member will get back to you.  Also, you can join up to our Facebook group: Scrapbook Blessings Club for more fun, games, inspiration, tips and techniques.      

Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by,
Jennyfer - Jennyfer Creates

Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Review

Good morning friends, Carolyn here with a review of a new tool I just recently purchased.  Received a newsletter from Scrapbook.com recently and checked it out.  But I did not purchase from Scrapbook.com as it's out of stock, so went to another source, and it arrived this past Saturday afternoon. TIP:  Easy way to create borders for your scrapbook page layouts, or embellishing the page or creating edges for your cards.  Gives you ease of creating a border across the edge(s) of paper; and create a border strip and cut down to size you would like for embellishing a sentiment mat for a card or front of card. Supplies used: Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Fiskars' smaller interchangeable border punch cartridges - double scalloped edge   Fiskars AdvantEdge Punch System Here is a short write up about the system: The unique design of the AdvantEdge Punch System by Fiskars allows crafters to add perfectly aligned decorative borders and ribbons to any pr
