Here are some quick ideas when using silhouette punches.  These punches look great but can be a bit intimidating.  There are some tricks to using these punches however.  The first and easiest is to punch across the edge of cardstock and create a border like the Mickey one.  Be sure to mark in pencil on the backside so that they are spaced evenly.  The next easy trick is to punch across some cardstock and then cut each silhouette out in a square.  Mount a color underneath and then mount the whole square on a different color like the Christmas tree layout.  The third trick is shown in the Hawaii layout.  Punch several silhouettes out and then using your jumbo circle punch upside down.  Place the silhouette image in the circle punch whole so that all sides are even and punch out the silhouette.  Punch another jumbo circle in another color and place behind the punched out silhouette.  There are plenty of unique things to do with these punches but there you have three easy ideas.
