I recently got a hold of a Quick Borders Craft punch by Marvy Uchida and I love it! It’s a neat paper punching tool that has interchangeable punch cartridges which allows you to create a lot of different edge effects with your paper crafts without having a huge pile of bulky individual punches. It includes with a straight edge tool so you can easily line up your cutting area to create seamless boarders to fit your projects.
Right now there are 8 different cartridges that I have. Each is a wonderful addition the paper crafting tools I already have. It easily cuts paper. The craft punch can also handle cardstock, just make sure to press the lever quickly to ensure the paper doesn’t stick in the punch area.
Over the weekend I hosted a Mother’s Day luncheon. We used the Quick Borders Craft Punch to make pretty water bottle wrappers. Each one a blank wrapper with a decorative edge so that guests could write their name on their bottle to easily find throughout the day.
Watch this video for a handy dandy demonstration of how to use this tool:
PS, I am using a new video set up, please excuse my learning curve…
Super clever and simple Jen-I bet the luncheon was a smash!
I am having trouble finding the border cartridges. where can I find them
I’ve bought some at Michaels – you can also buy them online straight from the manufacturer… http://www.uchida.com/p-80-quick-border-craft-punch.aspx
