This 2.5" Circle Punch is from Dress My Craft. This punch cuts through both light and heavy cardstock with its specially designed lever handle. The bottom of the punch has a sliding cover at the cutting edge which catches the cuttings and makes it easy to dispose of them. This punch will cut cardstock weights from 90 to 300 gsm with no problem. This punch will also cut paper, thin foam sheets, thin glitter foam sheets, and more. The blades are very sharp but should not be used to cut handmade papers or fabric.
