Step 4Cutting out your ribbon notches
For this step you will need the single hole punch, cutting mat, craft knife, and marked front piece from step three (10 5/8" X 3 1/4").
Center the single hold punch over each mark on the board. Allow 1/4 of the punch to hang over the side of the board. When you press the punch you should end up with a 3/4 circle mark embossed on your front piece. Repeat this action until every mark has been embossed.
Unless you have an extremely powerful punch, you will now need to cut out the remainder of the notch with your craft knife using the embossed marks as your guide. Take your time and use multiple, light passes to remove the unwanted material. If your edge is rough, you can use some sandpaper to smooth it down.
