Default Square punch help

Ok I saw some photos from convention where they used the square punch to make a zig zag kind of border with the square punch and card stock...
Can anyone tell me how with or with out measurements...
Thnaks in advance

Take a strip of paper maybe 3" wide. Angle the punch so that two opposite cornersalign with the edge of the paper. Punch out your triangle. Continue down this side of the paper meeting the corner of the punch to the corner of the paper that was just punched. When the side is complete, repeat it on the other side, but also line up the top point of the punch to a point on the paper. It's hard to explain, but very easy to do. I think Pam said the zigzag will vary depending on the width of your paper, so experiment and see what you get!!!

Sounds interesting and something I might want to show my customers. I'm hoping to see a photo, too. Thanks. Pam

Okay girls, I just posted it!! Here is the link:
Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

To see the complementing page (and what to do with all the triangle scraps you get, check this one out: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

By the way, I used a 2" x 12" piece of certainly celery to start. 3" was too wide (IMO). Hope this helps!!!
