I've been giving my corner punch quite a workout these days! Here are a few tips for successful (corner) punching that I'd like to share with you...•Make sure your paper is cut square. Your paper should have straight sides for the punch to work properly for you.
•Your paper should fit snugly into both edges of the guides and into the back of the punch.**Don't try to center by looking through the bottom of your punch; instead, align your paper using the guides on the top.
•Set the paper fully into both guides, as well as the back of the punch, almost pressing your paper down into the guides by curling the outside edge of the paper up. Push your paper flush against the guides as far as it will go into the back of the punch. If your paper isn't fully set against both guides, you will not get a good, clean punch.
•If you don't get a perfect corner, try centering your paper in the guides and punching again; your design should punch correctly. Don't worry if you need to try a couple of times to get the knack of it! Sometimes it takes some practice - that's why I always include extra scrap card stock when you receive your order. Then you can easily play & practice.
•Cut only one sheet at a time. This punch is designed to cut only one sheet of card stock or Designer Series Paper at a time. * It's generally good practice to only punch one sheet at a time reagardless of which punch you're using.
