Top Tip Thursday...

...again. I know that sometimes buying something new may be outside the budget (Shhh don't tell Fiona) especially when it comes to tools as even though they can be used again and again. They are more often than not the most expensive items that we crafters purchase.


SO

TOP TIP (with pictures AGAIN!!!) Making the 'torn notebook page' look without the proper punch




Step one: Take the size piece of paper you require for the project you are working on. In this case I have just used a scrap.


Step two: Evenly measure, then punch holes down the left side as shown in picture above.

Step three: tear or cut (if you want a neater look) from the outside in towards the holes as shown.

Easy Peasy!!

Sometimes being innovative is half the fun in the papercrafting world.

Hope you are enjoying your week, the kids are back at school now, and the countdown starts to the silly season.
