Cannot be oriented correctly

Skip this option. Before we made greeting cards, we bought the "lace" version. As others have pointed out, getting that angled kick to line up is incredibly difficult and impossible to tell if you've gotten it right until the deed is done. The stamp has a plastic guide wall that separates each design, as well as a small metal post on the die itself. They seem to actively interfere with aligning the paper, and due to the spacers it's literally impossible to get perfectly rounded corners with this hole punch . The only design that gives a reasonably professional result in my opinion, is the spiky one, as its design has no smooth transitions to the natural edge of the paper. If you are looking for a professional quality tool, look elsewhere. The button also requires a lot of force to press, and as others have noted, it's very difficult to use with thicker card stock (which is probably what people want to use it for in most cases). frequently). If you're a strong person like me, you won't have much of a problem until you're about 80 pounds, but it's still a factor. it's very difficult to use it with thicker card stock (which is probably what people want to use it for in most cases). frequently).
