I was in some great Stampin’ Addicts’ swaps last month, one for the Spring Catalog, and one for Sale-a-Bration. One of the Sale-a-Bration categories that I signed up for was to use the Sycamore Street Designer Series Paper. And what better way to show off the paper than to make a “quilt”!

I used my 1 inch square punch to get the exact parts of the design that I wanted. I used to think square punches were a waste, that it was easy enough to just cut out a square. I have to say though, so many things are SO MUCH EASIER with a punch! I love my square punches! (And Sale-a-Bration is a great time to fill out your punch collection!)
