Piercing Techniques: Grid Template


The Grid Template in the Essentials Paper-Piercing pack can be used to pierce perfectly placed holes on any line.

I made a card stock template, but if you plan to use the template several times, a plastic Window Sheet template would be more durable.














-stamp an image on scrap card stock
-place the stamped card stock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat
-position a hole of the Grid Template directly over a line in the image
-pierce the hole and keep the piercing tool in the hole
-turn the grid to position the next hole over the line in the image
-pierce hole and keep the piercing tool in the hole

-turn the grid to position the next hole over the line in the image
-pierce the hole and keep the piercing tool in the hole
-continue to turn and pierce the Grid Template on the image
