But it’s the most fabulous hole punch ever.
I’m talking about the Fiskars Large Round and Round. I bought this punch online at Joann.com to create our invitations and favor tags. It’s quite handy because the punch is flipped so that the paper comes out face up and you can actually see what you’re cutting, unlike most punches where the paper falls out of the bottom.
Below are the circles that I created with Adobe InDesign to close our pocketfold invitations. The circles and punch are approximately two inches in diameter. All I had to do was line the punch up with my design like so:
And out popped a bunch of cute little 2 inch circles! They look like pogs in the picture. 
When I purchased the Round ’n Round, I found a discount code for 50% off any regularly priced item on Joann’s website. The final price was $7 plus tax and shipping (which was expensive, so about $15). Right now the punches are on sale for $9.44 so the discount code doesn’t apply, unfortunately. They also have tag and heart shaped punches available too!
haha, i think i’m addicted to punching holes into paper. i just gave away one of mine and now i’m sooo tempted to buy this one.
ohh, i want one.. another one to add to my gadgets collection.
you have the same initials as miss snow pea. 
those tags are so cute! Did you print those out yourself? If so, what type of printer did you use? thanks!
nancEE, yup! i printed them myself. i just have a normal HP printer (i think it’s 7000?) but it does a pretty good job. i printed it on 80lb white cardstock.
Excuse me, I had to wipe the drool off my keyboard. That is such a fabulous punch.
If you sign up with an email address at joann.com, they email you 40% coupons regularly, and sometimes offer free shipping.
Thanks for this post! It’s going to save me a lot of work. I ordered one the tag punch for my favor tags… I saved a few dollars by ordering it on ebay.
damn it! why didn’t i discover this earlier! i spent long painful hours trying to line up my monogram/favor tag, flip the puncher over (w/out moving it out of place), and use my entire body weight to push down on the thing so it would go through the cardstock! geez…when will i catch up with this stuff.hehe
I love all of the extra little touches you guys add to your wedding details! It shows how much love and excitement you have for your big day!!! Very inspiring, you girls rock!!
YUMMY!!!
i LOVE how you can see what you’re punching! I was thinking about just purchasing round favor tags to use an enclosures for the invitations, but this is even better!!
miss eggplant - is that an inkjet printer you used? the printing looks so crisp as if it were from a laser printer! rock on!
ps - did you find it easy to squeeze the punch? i really want to get it, but my hands cramp easily. :T
and btw - the first url link works, but the second joann link doesn’t due to a typo in the url link. just wanted to give you a heads up! 
kp: yup! just an HP inkjet. it actually came out really well! good luck with yours.
kp: it’s totally easy to use punch through the paper. barely any pressure needed. it’s seriously the best punch ever.
I’m in love with you for referencing pogs.
Amen.
I wish I had that! I bought a 2″ circle punch from Michael’s and it is awful. I had to punch 150 circles for my favors and each one took so much energy and pressure (I was even using text paper and not cardstock). . . it definitely hurt my hand to use. I wish I had found a punch like this one.
Those are adorable.
oh yeah, we do have the same initials. Miss eggplant, did you ever see my post on how I collect things with a K&A. (click on my name)
I just bought the 1inch (before reading this post) at a Joann’s store. FYI, they are currently having a 30% off sale on these in store. (The 1 incher was $4.93 on sale)
I have the star-shaped one, and I used it to make large stars for table decorations. I love it!
[...] circles were printed on my inkjet and cut from 80lb cover stock using my handy dandy Fiskar’s circle punch. I ordered a huge roll of 7/8 inch wide grosgrain ribbon from JKM Ribbon to close the invitation. [...]
