Gabi, this one is for you!!!! You commented on my border punched edge corners on my red wedding page, well, it was kinda messy, but like you I've been trying to figure out how to line up those boogers and just can't, but there is a way to cheat. Punch 4 sperate pieces a little longer than you want, then overlap and match each corner!! Walaaah!!!!!! You can see a slight line on some paper, but others it doesn't show a all!!!! I'll try to find a layout that I did that with and link it!

Patti that is a wonderful idea thanks so much. I went to Dalores's blog and she also gives the same idea to do that as well as some more. Check her site too. I tried your way and hers and they work great. I love to look at the tutorial and learn so much from you all.
