It is lovely but I find it hard to punch through cardstock. It is easier to punch through paper.

I too am curious about how, precisely, you layered it. (Not on a coloured base, surely???)<br />As to border punches, I have three regular and one Christmas.

I haven't counted, but I have many of MS border punches, quite a few EK Success border punches, Spellbinders border dies and I think I have all of Fiskars fancy scissors. I usually use a coupon when I purchase any of these, but once in a while I forget the coupon, or see a border punch that I cannot live without until I can get a coupon.<br /><br />I am in love with all of your cards and I know that I now have to get this border punch too.Deanna Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10857102946648660177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-81887609628786627672010-07-30T15:19:03.499-04:002010-07-30T15:19:03.499-04:00Sheeesh...no, make that sush!!

Martha Stewart and EK Success (how can you pass up the coupons?) and then I've recently discovered Kreaxion 3-way or 4-way punches. I have most of my punches stored in plastic/IRIS containers but some are in shoe boxes(labeled of course)and then that helps me rationalize and I don't feel so guilty! Punches instead of shoes? any day!Kraftyauntnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-75041175175114069112010-07-30T14:52:30.177-04:002010-07-30T14:52:30.177-04:00Well I have never took the time to count my border...Well I have never took the time to count my border punches, but if I had to guess I would say 12 - 15 and I think because of your enabling I have just added lucky #13 or 16.Sherry Eckbladhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08892178349786311540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-36308085618492323962010-07-30T13:43:50.057-04:002010-07-30T13:43:50.057-04:00Absolutely gorgeous, elegant and so CAS.

In my defense my son uses the scissors so they do double duty - I can talk myself into making it sound good to own so many!
