Love...love...love this punch

Hi folks...I'm sharing a Wedding Canvas project I made for Fiskars using one of my all time favourite punches...the Love Intricate Shape Punch...it's not a Power Punch but it did punch through some thicker than normal materials...the secret is to give it a try but if you feel resistance...STOP or you'll have a jammed punch on your hands or worst case scenario...a broken one...
It punched through the Funky Foam and self adhesive Cork Sheet like a knife through butter so I thought I would push my luck a little bit and applied Stick It to a scrap of Funky Foam and sprinkled it with Diamond Dust Glitter and woohoo...it worked...life is full of surprises...
And an added bonus for us canny crafters who are always looking to get more bang for our buck when it comes to craft supplies...you get the "two for the price of one" heart with the negative word and the punched out letters too.
See you all tomorrow for the Fiskars Power Punch Give-Away
