Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator
Thank you for visiting my blog, I really do appreciate it and hope you like the project I have made. I was doing a zoom class a few weeks ago and one of my attendees was having trouble with the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch so I showed her the long window sheet arms I had made so you can cut smaller strips. She also said it was hard t get a good matting layer so I decided t find a solution for her. I had seen this idea in a photo on a Facebook group but couldn't remember where so just tried it out from memory. I made myself a set of these templates and tried them out and they worked. I then decided to do a spontaneous live on Facebook to share this tip as i was quite excited about it and thought it would be nice to make these for that customer and class attendee. I have now put the video o my youtube channel to it is easy to find.
Measurements and Materials
- These templates help you to cut your sentiment strip to the right size for punching
- I have used strips of window sheets
- 3 1/2" x 1/2"
- 3 1/2" x 3/4"
- 3 1/2" x 1"
- I punched 3 scrap strips at each end with the different label punched
- So I have 6 small punched out bits that you normally throw away
- I stuck these small bits to each end of the window strip
- I was careful to make sure they were right up to the end of the strip
- Now I can stamp my sentiment on a strip and place the window sheet strip over the top and see which section will be cut off
- You can either draw a line at the edge of the window sheet or as I did just cut the card stock using the window sheet as a guide
- Repeat for both sends as required
- Now when you place in the punch yo know how made will be punched off
- You ca use the extender arm I have made to hold small strips
- Now place the sentiment strip on the card stock strip you are using to mat and place the window sheet template on top to see where you want the punch to cut
- Again snip the card strip at the end of the window sheet
- Now when you punch you will have the perfect layer
Now watch the video tutorial to see how this was made :-)
I hope you will find these tips useful when using this wonderful punch. To make sure you don't miss any of my projects why not subscribe to my YouTube channel, follow my blog and subscribe to my newsletter? I will be back tomorrow, until then ...
