Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What materials can the postage stamp paper punch cut through?
A: The stamp shape paper punch is designed primarily for paper and cardstock. It works well on standard copy paper, decorative scrapbook paper, and medium-weight cardstock. It can also handle thin foam sheets and similar lightweight craft materials. Very thick or laminated materials are not recommended as they may strain the lever mechanism.
Q: What is the difference between the small and large stamp punch sizes?
A: The small punch produces a cutout of approximately 2.5 × 2.1 cm (rectangular) or 2.5 × 2.5 cm (square), ideal for smaller embellishments, journal tags, and mini cards. The large punch creates a cutout of approximately 3.8 × 3.1 cm (rectangular) or 3.8 × 3.8 cm (square), better suited for larger photo labels, gift tags, and prominent scrapbook features.
Q: Is this stamp punch suitable for children to use?
A: Yes — the lever-action design requires only gentle downward pressure, making it manageable for older children during supervised school or home art projects. Adult supervision is recommended for younger children.
Q: How do I keep the punch performing at its best?
A: Regularly empty the internal chad tray to prevent paper build-up. Occasionally punching through wax paper or a lightly oiled sheet can help keep the blade smooth and extend the tool's life.
