Punch Hack

Published: Tue, 02/09/21

Punch tip: The following tip will work with any type of builder punch. I'm going to show you how it works with both individual stamping and the Stamparatus. Be sure to read to the bottom to see the finished card.

Punch out all shapes on a scrap piece of paper.

Place the template on top of the card stock you want to stamp on. Stamp individual stamps within the corresponding shapes.

I find it easier to remove the template and then fill in the outline with your color (two-step stamping, markers, watercolor pencils, etc.)

Insert the stamped paper into the punch. All of the images should line up since you used the template for placement.

If you are using the Stamparatus, place your template on top of the card stock on the Stamparatus.

Place the stamps in the cut out shapes.

Close the plate so the stamps stick to the underside of the plate.

Remove the template, ink the stamps and press the plate with the stamps onto the card stock.

Individually fill in the color (if the stamps require coloring). Punch the shapes out with the punch as above.

Here are the finished cards using the Sweet Strawberry Bundle (punch & stamp set) and Scripty 3D Embossing Folder. The Berry Delightful paper & Berry Blossoms stamp set are free with a $100 order, but only during February! If you need help ordering, please reach out to me. I'll be happy to help!
