Using Corner Punches – The single most important rule when using a corner punch is to have a perfectly square corner on your punching media.  You can also use a corner punch upside down.  With the corner guides out, it is helpful to draw guide lines on the back of the medium to help ensure proper alignment.

Here is a simple 3-step method for creating the perfect corner punch with these scrapbooking supplies:

·                    seat the paper securely into the corner guides;

·                    lock the paper in place by depressing the punch slightly;

·                    complete the punching by using a smooth steady motion.

Removing Corner Guides from Scrapbooking Punches – With corner guides removed, corner and photo mounting punches have added versatility as edge lacers or for matting round or oval photos.  To remove corner guides, insert a small flat-blade screwdriver into the middle of the paper slot where the two halves of the corner guide meet.  Gently wiggle the screwdriver to the left a few times, then to the right.  Repeat this action until the guides separate and can be slid apart.  Just pull the guides out to the sides of the scrapbooking supplies punch.  To reinstall corner guides, slip the side guide with the two locking pins back into the punch (smooth, flat side up).  Slide the other side guide in from the other side, and squeeze them together.  The side guides will lock in the correct location.

Using Silhouette Punches – Scrapbooking supplies silhouette punches utilize a special double-die construction.  One die cuts the outline of the design, while the second die cuts out inset shapes.  Because of this, you need to punch these deeper than regular punches, but NOT harder.  The best technique for using these scrapbooking supplies punches is to place the punch at table height, with the punch slot facing towards you.  Stand over the punch placing the heel of your hand on the white button, and your hand facing the back end of the punch, away from the scrapbooking supplies paper slot.  As you gently depress the white button, you will hear two slight clicks.  The first is the die cutting the outline; the second is the interior die cutting the insets.  The punching process is now complete!
