I wish I had some of the really cool decorative punches that everyone else seems to have. I don't though, and I hate not trying a new technique. I also don't have nestabilities. So I traced a circle by hand and followed Becca's wonderful directions as best I could with what I had. I added glitter, brads and rhinestones, probably to compensate for my simple circles. Maybe Santa will bring me some punches along with the rest of my wish list.

I too am seriously lacking in decorative corner punches (although I am definitely not lacking in regular punches). Thanks for the inspiration to go see what I can make do with! Love all the sparkle and that snowflake paper is great...

I applaud you for your creativity and cutting this by hand! You did a great job, and I love the punched circles. This kind of reminds me of the old finger-dial telephones. Very pretty!
