I have to say, though, these punches are not all they are cracked up to be, as pretty as they look! I did a baby announcement with the Giga scallop recently, and after punching about 20, that punch was dying! Maybe it was just my incredible SU! cardstock rebelling against the non-SU! punch Anyway, even when it was brand new I wasn't that happy with the way it punched.
Aye...another lured into the web. ;) Um...just like me. Check out some of the other threads and think you can search the gallery for projects. The scalloped circle and squares are sooooo cool too. Mine are coming in the mail...hopefully soon!!!!

I think it costs too much since I really won't demo it to my customers. I have tried to stick to my guns about not spending money on things I just "want" and only getting what I need. I have enough stuff to last me a lifetime!:rolleyes:
I do really like the look, though!:cool:
just ordered the circle this morning on joanns.com using the 50% off coupon....I need another punch like I need a hole in the head...but it just looks so cute when used.........................

I haven't had any trouble with mine, but the punch directions tell you to punch through aluminum foil if it gets dull and wax paper if it sticks a bit. That should bring your punch back to life!

The first one I bought was not the easy Clever Lever kind. It was hard to use so I took it back for this kind. The Clever Lever is very easy to use. Which kind do you have?
Beware ~ they are addicting. I couldn't have just one, two or three! And, I can hardly stamp without using one of them these days....Just so ya know! ;)

Isn't that just lousy!!:-D Only getting what we "need" when we have such large lists of "wants"! Good for you to stick to that, I try, I really do, but have a really hard time!! I really really WANT that scallop punch, but, lucky for me, I guess, I haven't seen it anywhere in Canada, they are always sold out.:-D
WOW...I am thinking that I NEED one of those...or two or maybe three...*G*
I bought the square, oval and circle in both the mega and giga size. I kept telling myself that I didn't need them (or at least I didn't need BOTH sizes) but I didn't listen to myself.
I found the mega and giga circles at my LSS but they didn't have the ovals. I know I could order online but I really wanted instant gratification! Of course, if I can't find the ovals locally, then I'll just have to place an online order soon.

OK....I'm scared to ask, but how many of them are there? Circles, Ovals and Squares? I'm reading GIGA and MEGA....what else? Do they "nest" in each other for matting?
