I have been so tempted with a couple of these punches..but read that they are very hard to use especially if you have arthritis.I am glad you find it easy luvtocraft...enjoy playing with it.

I have the stars and zigzag ones and they are great...have you looked at the new EK Success ones? They are very similar in some designs to MS...

I finally got my doily lace one last week and tomorrow, with any luck, I should have the valentine hearts one.. those are the only two that 'spoke to me' when I first saw cards that had used them and I have been lusting after them for must be almost 6 months now.

I find the doily one difficult to use, not because it is too stiff but because the piece of paper that will eventually be discarded when the border is finished gets tangled up inside the punches mechanism. Clearly the design has a fault, but the resultant pattern is just so gorgeous I shall learn to live with it.

Havent had that problem yet Looby but time will tell. It is beautiful though. The EK punches do look similar dont they.

Ooh, I love the bat one :emo:

yes, tis nice DD...I seem to have a bit of a 'thing' for border punches ATM!

I was ready to throw my doily lace punch out of the window until someone told me a) to use thicker paper or two sheets of thin paper at once and b) not to butt the paper up to the ridge on the edge of the punch, but to line it up with the straight edge of the thick silver border design. It stops it tangling up when you pull the paper out and *touch wood* it's behaved itself since I've started doing that.

I really like the 'round the corner' punches

I really like the 'round the corner' punches

they are lovley Jeanette I especially like the loopy one but also think the spiders web one is cool. Have you seen the drippy goo one its not a "round the corner" but is another I am lusting after I've seen some fantastic carss made with using it as cake icing or as candle wax dripping

I love the drippy goo one too. Mind you, there aren't many I don't NEED! :rock:

I really shouldn't have looked :sad: Being without a die cutting machine means that from time to time I start to think about getting punches in - I have no border punches at all. More things to add to my list...*sigh*
