Wonderful Punch - Love this style
I have learned that I love certain shapes of Epherma - specifically, stars, circles, and hearts. I have the We R Memory keepers sets, that go up to 1 1/2 inches. I do a lot of pocket pages, so I have EK Success punches in 2 and 2.5 inches.
The benefit of these punches is they collapse nicely for storage without taking up too much room. I have a die cutting machine, and basic shapes like circles and ovals, but I find myself defaulting to punches as they are easy to pull out, use, and put away.
