To add a continuous, decorative border to cards and stationery or to create a stripe of paper lace to any craft project.
Using the border punches, you can create wonderful lace effects on paper, by varying the effects according to the colours and types of paper. Using the personal paper trimmer 30cm, cut out strips of 3cm wide (or more according to the desired result).
Then, place a paper strip in the border punch aligning it with the beginning of the white design on the base of the border punch. Punch while pressing firmly on the blue lever. Repeat the previous instructions along the length of the strip. Turn the punched strip around to punch the other side and repeat the previous pattern in order to obtain a symmetric lace punched design.

The revolutionary punch with two squeeze handles.
Fibrous materials, such as tissue, banana or mulberry paper, etc… need extra support for a clean and precise cut.
To do this, place rough paper (80g) over your medium before punching.
-
Create the soft natural look of hand-made paper with a Tear edger. 2 designs in 1 tool.
Never tear your paper by closing completely the ruler to the paper. Otherwise, the finishing cut will not be enough torn and clean.
To continue the decorative cut effect, replace your Tear Edger at the end of the cut carefully following the design continuity. Repeat process if necessary
-
To create an embossing background to your projects easily.
To help you emboss smoothly and without ‘scratching’, use a piece of wax paper and rub the paper to be textured or the tip of your tool.
You can also use a candle but be careful not to rub too hard as you will leave wax traces. Again it’s ideal to rub the point of your texturing tool on the candle to help ensure a smooth embossing motion.

Cuts decorative corner slots in paper.
Measure dimensions of your photo or your support to be framed. Then calculate dimensions of your framework to punch by adding 5mm on each side of your document to be framed.
-
Modern, quick & easy method to create beautiful parchment projects.
When you emboss using pressure on parchment paper, it turns white. Firm pressure should be applied to make a dense white line. The foam pad is designed to take firm pressure without damaging the parchment paper. Avoid pressing down too hard as this may cause you to rip through the paper.

Handle blades with extreme care.
Precise cuts :
To stop precisely while cutting, use a personal paper trimmer and draw a mark with a pencil on the paper where the stop is desired. Then begin cutting, stopping the blade when the arrow located on the orange or black blade crosses your pencil mark.
In order to cut out fiber, textured or natural papers, take care to turn the paper face down. It works best on smooth surfaces and prevent damage to your cutting blade and support.
Have a look at the trimmer you are using in the tools section to have more details.

Embossing system starter set. Well designed for scrapbooking activity.
When coloring an embossed area, a piece of scrap paper can be used to mask off or cover areas that you don’t want color.
Any time a color is used over an embossed area with the stencil in place, residue can be transferred to a clean area. Therefore, it is important to clean the residue off the stencil. To clean, use a damp cloth, lanolin free baby wipe, or dampened cotton ball.

Then place dots where the centre of each punch should be. Check the alignment before punching through the paper. Finally firmly compress while keeping the Hand Punch turned over.

For the ShapeCutter™ Plus
When cutting fabric, it is advisable to place it against some scrap paper (80g). Use heat sealing paper or glue with temporary gluing properties to stick you fabric to the paper then use the ShapeCutter™ Plus on the paper side.
This technique makes the fabric a little firmer, which facilitates a more precise cut.
