      Do you have information where in the USA I could purchase the beautiful heart punch that has the cross hatching in it that was in the video at 1:23?
      Thank you

    • @CreatedByGwen
      @CreatedByGwen  Год назад

      Unfortunately that one is no longer being manufactured I'm afraid, it's years old now. I did see this one amzn.to/47ELlA9 which is similar and it's the exact same brand/packaging as the heart one, you might be able to track one down at a local store or garage sale or even EBAY perhaps?

    💜💜💜tfs💜💜💜 it's funny, I found a heart punch in store (anyone remember when Carl sold their punches in Newsagents??) and bought it without knowing anything about scrapping/cardmaking. I was just like ohhh that's cute, and bought it. After about a week I looked up what to do with it - and that was my intro to Scrapping... hahaha

      Your layouts bring punches to the next level!!😍😍😍 Tiny punches are great to use in place of enamel dots, especially with the rising cost. Add Liquid Glass to them to bring them up a notice. Plus you can stamp on them to add texture.

    • @CreatedByGwen
      @CreatedByGwen  Год назад

      Thank you... I've used the single punch too for enamel dots, so much cheaper than enamel dots so you can sprinkle them all over the page which I love. I hadn't thought to stamp on them first though... clever! 🙌

    I bought my first punch nearly 30 years ago & I now have quite a few! Some get used more than others but I can never bring myself to get rid of any as you never know when you will need them! I love snowflake punches as you can get so many different ones, I have a whole drawer full (about 20 different snowflakes!) I also have lots of the same punches as you have & I'm in the UK. Great video, I learnt a few new hacks. My first punches were tiny little ones, moon, sun, star, butterfly etc, I still use these a lot. Beautiful layouts by the way.❤

    • @CreatedByGwen
      @CreatedByGwen  Год назад

      Hey Diane, I use the Aluminium Foil and punch that through them. In the video, that was where I showed how to punch the foil with that butterfly punch. This is the only method I've seen and I will say that the best results I've had with it is to do it early, and frequently. If the punch gets too blunt it is very hard to fix. Just keep a stash of it in the same place you store your punches and give each one a punch whenever you use them. 👍

      I've kept all of my punches... there were a couple that broke that I had to throw away but all in all I think they are something that will be useful for a long long time. Thanks for popping by the channel today Gayle 🌷🌷🌷

    Hi Gwen, I sharpen punches, dies and scissors with aluminium foil! It's a great tip and very handy ... I used it on a pair of secateurs the other day.

      So so glad to hear this worked! I had a few people saying that it doesn't and it had me doubting myself. It's worked for me too :)

      @@CreatedByGwen i think they need to understand that it needs to be lots of layers of aluminium foil. If you just use one sheet it doesnt work as well.

      Yep... and the thickness of the foil makes a difference too. @@mandy.austin

    Hi! It’s my first time seeing one of your RUclips(s). Thank you for a very nice tutorial. Besides Some misc punches, I have a Martha Stewart circle punch system w several punches, that I bought on EBay. Seems very complicated, but I think some of the tips you gave will help me.

    • @CreatedByGwen
      @CreatedByGwen  Год назад

      Hey Patricia! Welcome! I'm so glad you found me. I haven't actually seen that system so I can't offer any help I'm afraid. I think a variety of circles would be super helpful and versatile so well worth trying to figure out if you can. Thanks for taking the time to say hello 👋

    • @CreatedByGwen
      @CreatedByGwen  Год назад

      Yes, that one is a good hack that's for sure... the scallop dies will be faster though so now that you have them it will be worth it. You might find too that the heart punch creates a slightly different look, perhaps a little wider than the dies so I'm sure you'll get use out of both ideas 🌸
