I typically rip things out of their bindings to get an edge like this.  I have a rolodex card punch – for two holes at a time, spaced for that system.  And I have a Stampin' Up Punch – also just the couple of holes at a time.

But move over punches – because EK Success has beaten you all…to the punch with their Paper Shapers Binding Edge punch for $14.99.

For a continuous border of that lovely, easy-to-distress and as-if-it-was-ripped-out look.  All I need now is ink.

P.S. I have a Bind-It-All, but that is truly the work horse for actually binding things.  So it doesn't count.  None of these other pretty things can punch through chipboard or acrylic.  They don't have the chops for it.

Ok, back to building something cool – just had to share.
