I will only die cut it. On the very first card I ever made, I had tried punching some glitter paper that was not even as thick as Michaels' paper and I felt that it was just too much for the small but sturdy heart punch I was using. I find many of the lever punches to just not seem strong enough for much more than basic cardstock. I've even read that many people find that the medium MS punches as well as her regular size edge punches won't even punch SU's cardstock so even though I have not had that particular problem, it has caused me to be pretty careful with them. I know a lot of people don't like to deal with loose glitter, but if I want punched glitter shapes, I just make my own... punch the cardstock shape and then add the glitter myself. <br /><br />Always love a good snowflake card! And if it glitters it's even better. I can't get enough snowflake stamps, dies or punches or enough glitter... not that I end up actually putting glitter on very many of my cards. As much as I love it, it does have to fit the card.

I have several sheets of some really nice stuff; with no idea of the manufacturer. : (Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11555524232243452021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-54938380262251150292012-10-24T01:52:34.128-04:002012-10-24T01:52:34.128-04:00Simply stunning, Susan!

I bought a few sheets for my Christmas cards but could not punch through it at all. Ended up ordering snowflake dies (also from Ellen Hudson - fastest shipping on earth) because I really need a snowflake on my cards, but even the dies barely cut through it! <br />Love your card!Susanne Vargashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053173259623129941noreply@blogger.com
