Here is the list so far.. I'll keep it updated and who is sending the punch to who.. PLEASE remember to if you can label your punch.. it'll be easier to find the return addy if you know where the punch originated...

EAST COAST:

ETA: Please try to use a 3 day turnaround on the punches so we can hopefully rotate them through the list timely.. PLEASE PM your send to person directly for their addresses. If someone needs them I might have them and you can PM me... Please post when you mail to the next person so I can keep this updated and you will know when you should be receiving the hole punch.

okie dokie....I have a question....

I bought some refill rolodex cards (before I decided to make my own)....and when I use the punch that I have (which is a rolodex punch, by the same company as the rolodex cards!), the holes don't line up. Well, they line up fine sideways, but the punch punches the holes lower than in the refill cards. (can you picture what I mean??) Like, if I hold up the 2 cards and line up the holes, my card is sticking up higher than the refill, even though both cards are 2.25x4. So, depending on whether people use a punch (and some might be different!) or use the original cards or refills as a base, these cards might end up being a slightly different height.

I need coffee.

 

[AlexWyattMommy]

Yes, mine are that way. The top of the holes are a little lower than the wrong refill cards I bought. So I think that will make my card a little higher? Anyway, I noticed that Kat had punched her holes twice to get them the right height. I did not do that. I figured that everyone's rolodex file might be a little different, so if you want to double punch, you can when you get it.

Okay, for those of you getting my punch. Here is a little bit of help getting it lined up correctly in the middle. Turn your card over. Measure in one and half inches and make a mark. Then line that mark up in the middle of the hole closest to that side. You have to squeeze the punch twice to get it go through all the way.

Did you use cardstock, AWM? Thanks for sending your punch on.

my punch is a little different...and a little trick (it might save time on the measuring) is to line up your card with one that already has the holes in it, and then just line up the punch with the holes. That's what I did, and I'll enclose some blank refills in case anyone wants to do it that way. There are 2 little things sticking up, and you line the bottom of your card with those, and then punch. HTH!

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Good to know AWM... Since that punch is on the way here..

I see what you mean Momof2DK... hmmm?
I think this swap is gonna makes us all crazy before we are done.. We are all very analytical!! AND THATS A GOOD THING!!

I'm going to work on these today.. Well, the cut of the cards anyway!!! I have several things on my list to do since DS's soccer game got cancelled I can scrap today!!! DH is going to be working on the Living Rm. w/ FIL and I go down to my area so I don't stress out!!!

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

MO2DK, take your time punching. I still need to find the right kind of paper for Tink!

actually, I had an hour to myself faint this morning, and cut the cards and punched them....well, 24 of them, because I ran out of cardstock. LOL. So, I'm off to Michaels to buy a teeny more, and will mail the punch with the baby pages in a few days!

I used non-textured cardstock for the base, pretty paper on top and then punched the holes. Embellishment to happen later.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Well, I think B&MB is planning on mailing me the BossKut die, so I won't need the punch. Thanks so much for the offer and now that I know you have one, I may need to use it in the future.
