Photo Tutorial: Double-Punched Technique

I set out to create projects for the third and final post showcasing our featured Sale A Bration set of the week, What I Love, and ended up doing a whole photo tutorial instead! But it was so quick and easy I just had to share it with you all.

Look at the lavender shape around my stamped focal point on this notecard--doesn't look like any punch shape you've seen, eh? That's because it's double-punched! Enjoy this easy tutorial on the double-punching technique, and then turn off the computer and go get in the craft room and see what other punches can be doubled!

I know, I know, mine's not copy paper. I just grabbed some note paper that was handy. But you should feel free to keep calm and have a cupcake, anyway.

Then when you punch it, you'll get a cool sunburst-type piece instead of scallops. This is awesome for guy cards and anything you need layers for but would rather not make so girly.

Just peel the double-punched piece off the copy paper backing and use on any project you want. And, it works with ANY size scallop circle punch! That's awesome.

Play around with the position of the second punch, and you can get all kinds of cool looks. I love how this next one turned out.

There we have it... a super quick and simple way to get even MORE good out of that old craft room workhorse, the punch. I can't wait to see YOUR cards with it!
