New Perforating Tool Technique

Stampin' Up! Perforating Tool Florals in Bloom pocket card with slip-out tag

This weekend, I learned a new technique using the perforating tip for the Take Your Pick tool! We had a demonstrator-only event where we made a few projects, and since I learned a fun new tip, I knew I needed to share it with you right away.

The projects we made all used the beautiful upcoming Peaceful Garden Suite which you will see in the Fall 2025 Mini Catalog. Since I wanted you to be able to make a card like this right away, I’ve redone the card using the Florals in Bloom Suite which is on sale through the end of June (check out the details of the sale here).

Check out how we learned to use the Perforating Tip for the Take Your Pick tool (it’s part of the Take Your Pick Crafter Tips, sold separately) in my Quick Class video from 6/25/25:
