new arch lattice border punch by MS

Earlier today, I saw the word out on various stamping forums that new Martha Stewart border punches had been spotted at Michael's stores. Needless to say when I headed out to take care of my many errands, I made a quick stop by a Michael's to see what I could find. It was right on my way. How convenient, eh? Hanging on the display I discovered four border punch designs that I'd not seen before. I also saw the wonderful sight of sales signs for Martha Stewart craft products this week. Excellent!

I have to say that the Arch Lattice design caught my eye. I really liked the looks of that one! Here's a card that I made, just so I could see if it worked well. I've heard some folks complain that their MS border punches won't punch all the way through. I've never had any problems with them.


I used black cardstock as my card base and Basic Grey as the first layer. The punch handled that Basic Grey layer without problems. I didn't have any problems with the heavier white cardstock layer either. The stamped image is by K & Company and was stamped using Memento dye inks. I embellished with the ribbon and Robin's Nest Dew Drops.

Fun new border punch! :-)
