Does anyone make these? I've seen lots of dies for cutting decorative corner embellishments, but I'm looking for ones to cut functional photo corners that I can use for heritage photos (adhesive on the photo corner, not on the photo.)
Anyone?

Hi, Not sure there is a functional die, but there was a Martha Stewart punch a while back. It works well. Maybe available on ebay?

Yes, I have 2 QuicKutz dies that are actual photo corners. I have both of these sets that I found on eBay. The first one is more expensive than the others I found but had the best picture. I'll keep looking for other brands. ebay QuicKutz photo cornerHeart Photo Corners eBay |

I don't have the best of luck with punches as I've had too many jam up on me, so I'm hoping to get hold of a die instead. Thanks again, both of you |

All the others I've found were just to glue on TOP of a picture and a few fold under a little but not all the way like the QuicKutz ones and the ones you buy. The first QK photo corners were just the "decorative" ones, not like those. I was SO disappointed when I realized they weren't the "real" thing!  I finally gave up and just cut cardstock the right size and used photo slit punches on some of my first scrapbooks. I just don't want to glue down original old family pictures. |

I know, but I'm too lazy to do that! Like getting out the dies and Big Shot takes LESS time! |

I've made my own before, just like those, but I like the notched triangle look more. I'm spoiled rotten, what can I say?  Usually I'll paint the white pre-made ones with a coordinating color, but I thought making them out of my paper would be nice instead. I found one style on AliExpress, but it's a little bigger than I want and a little fancy for my tastes. I like that QK die, but AngieandSnoopy , do you cut the QK dies with your Big Shot? I have one, but I've never tried QK dies with it. |

I have two EK Success punches that make the corners. They are the smaller punches.

And if you happen to have a Tagalong or SideKick, that is even faster when you are cutting tiny dies like this. Of course you have to have the black adapter or the new color plates for wafer thin dies. |

I use the Martha Stewart punch, and it works well. not sure if or how much it would cost to buy one now. I have had mine for several years...

I like the newer EK design that locks and lays flat. My photo corner punch is still that bulky whale design. PITA to store. My whale punches are next on my purge list. |

I hadn't considered it before, but I could just use pre-made photo corners for the functional aspect and glue flat decorative punched corners on top of those. That would work. hmmm. You're giving me more to think about now... Thanks everyone! |
