I punched my cards in the corners with the "info" so to speak. The little white borders made a great "reference" for where to place the puncher. I kinda figured if you can't read the middle of the card.... then the info in the corners don't really matter! LOL Maybe I'm a bit backwards on where I punched the cards... but it worked and they look good.

I must agree.... find a good movie to watch while you punch... it's a boring job, and after a while, you hands start to hurt. But... the outcome is well worth it.

Nice to know I was missed!!!
OK, so when punching the cards, did everyone punch only one corner, or two? My brain thinks that if I punch two on opposite corners that it might be good....I don't know! The cards really wanna be punched though!

I punched 2 corners... diagonally opposite of each other. TG did the same thing.

You HAVE to punch both corners... oposing corners. Otherwise when you shuffle rings won't be able to go through.

I punched the clear corners because I was concerned that if I punched the part with info (so to speak- ha ha) on it that it might damage the waterproof quality of those corners. Kind of like lamination. They aren't laminated- they are plastic. But I didn't know if the same rules might apply.

erparamedic gets to be the info-corner-punching... what's the word I'm looking for here? Experiment? Tester? Whatever- you get to let us know how they hold up!

Stine- we DID miss you! I hate reading through a bunch of pages- when threads get too long and I can't just go to the last page and not miss anything I stop reading them! I am so impressed with people who read through all these pages!

If you use a three-hole punch, you can figure out precisely where to set the cards so they'll punch properly. You'll also be able to punch two at a time, but that was about my limit. Three didn't work well (punch jammed, etc). I also left the hole catcher bottom off the punch, as sometimes the punch wouldn't release completely. I just used a pencil to push the punch back through the hole when that happened.

I punched the upper left and lower right corners, as the corner numbers are the main identification when you're holding a hand, and I didn't want to impair that.

(okay, doing a little shopping, too- my husband is very good at letting his sunglasses get chewed by the dog, lost, crushed... this time it's chewed by the dog- must replace, won't pay Sunglass Hut prices!)

Where'd you find that code? I just pay full price and everyone else gets to cheap out! Dang it! So Sad for me (ha ha). Oh well- they're still cute shirts!
