I don't have this punch, but have used it often with the word window punch. This would make a great gift card holder. It's also perfect for a little extra sentiment card. So creative. I, too, cringe when I see "tut" or "tute" on blogs. I often e-mail links to myself I want to access soon (it's easier for me and Pinterest); if it's a tutorial I put that at the end of the subject line so I can find it quickly. Even then, I can't bring myself to write anything but TUTORIAL. I've unsubscribed from blogs where bad grammar is the norm.

Seems so obvious now I've seen you do it.<br /><br />Thank you! It makes those punches so much more versatile.<br /><br />I have a few lawyer friends so will be casing your card for them.<br /><br />And I agree with you about "tut". I can't stand it either (I am also an English major, and a librarian to boot). But I am guilty of some similar abbreviations - for instance, I've taken to using "Nesties" for Nestabilities after seeing others do it on SCS. But maybe that doesn't count as Nestabilities isn't a real word in the first place.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07741064223875062517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-16228855491797111432012-04-02T10:51:36.893-04:002012-04-02T10:51:36.893-04:00Great idea!!!Great idea!!!Karen McAlpinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12313597922522849456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-85481357289164762452012-04-02T08:14:07.454-04:002012-04-02T08:14:07.454-04:00Love, love, love this idea!

I had been think...Thank you, thank you, thank you! I had been thinking that I must be the only person in the world who hated seeing people use "tut" for tutorial! Of course, I hate most things about how this computer age with it's e-mail and texting, etc. has caused people to shorten so many words as well as use so many acronyms. Another one besides "tut" that really gets to me is the use of "deets" instead of just typing the word "details". Now really... is it worth sounding so stupid to save the amount of time it takes to type two more letters? And I'm so sick of people acting like we all should know acronyms they must make up themselves. I have Googled acronyms from crafters' blogs that in the context of their posts are speaking of something to do with crafting, only to find a long list of possibilities of what their "made up" acronym stands for... none of which are crafting terms!<br /><br />I'm not even an English major nor did I have great English teachers in high school and college unfortunately, but it truly makes me very sad to see how so many out there are destroying the English language on a daily basis. The poor spelling and grammar I see so often around the Internet makes me wonder how people can get through school and learn so little. And it is even more sad that they don't care or think it is important at all. But, I'll stop venting for now about this one small area in the degradation of our society.<br /><br />Your card is wonderful and thanks for reminding me of this punching technique. I've only been papercrafting for a couple of years and I know I've already forgotten more techniques than I could imagine. This one is so easy and useful. I hope I remember to use it more in the future.Colorado Crafterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01595373334246443398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9008375791436102784.post-90757796226361816612012-04-02T01:40:29.840-04:002012-04-02T01:40:29.840-04:00Thank you!!!
