Posted: 1/24/2013 12:13:36 PM Hello Peas.....Has anyone purchased the Fiskars Advantage border punch? The borders look beautiful. I can use my 50% off at Joanns! Just was hoping for some input from anyone who has one. Thank you in advance

I was using one last weekend and they are really cool. The borders are really pretty.

They are BIG borders that would look good on a SB page. I think I am going to cut some of them down the middle to use for cards.

Also you have to use a lot of power to press it-- it worked better for me standing up.

I did like how it locks into place so there's less chance of a mispunch.

The magnetic holder holds well but it also requires a few inches of paper that you can't punch. I used 12x12 sheets and I could only get 3 lengths per sheet and then an extra piece left that was about 3". So you end up with 3 borders 12" long and the extra 3"x12" piece.
