Paper Piercing Tips

January 09, 2009 By: Pamela Category: Card Art

This is an oldie but a goodie,and maybe something you’ve not thought of….lol….I use an old mouse pad and place it under my paper, to poke holes in my paper, with my paper piercer.

Don’t have a paper piercing tool? Pick up an embroidery needle the next time you are at a store with a sewing department. The embroidery needles are wider and make a better sized hole; excellent for pushing your brads thru too.

Pierce holes for brads, thread ribbon, or try the old fashioned pierced tin look!

    I would love to see the new fruit stamps made up in a card. I like either way, l lice either but am getting to like the clear stamps more. Thank for the piercing tip and your card is great.
