Today, I want to show you how to make the cards below using the Braided Border Punch. This punch is located on page 29 in the Mini Catalog. It is a beautiful punch, but can be challenging to use. I love the daisy punches and have used them here. Each card is similar, but using different colors and sentiments, these cards are individualized. Hope you enjoy them and will try this technique yourself! The punch will retire out at the end of May, so please click shop now to order! Have a great day.
