Default What size punch does Big Pieces require? *merged*

Good morning ladies!
I am going to break down and buy Big Pieces - but I want to be sure to have a punch that will fit the circles. Can anyone tell me what size to get?

The mini itself tells me the size of the Little Pieces punch I need but not the big :(

Honestly, I use at least 3 of the sizes. Both big circle punches and then the sizse they recommend for the little pieces (I use this to punch out the center of some of the circles).

I think the biggest punch NOT a Giga or MEga is 1 1/2 inches

Should I get the large SU 1 3/8 or would a Marvy Uchida 1 1/2 punch be better? Thank you!

I have all the stacking circle punches from EK sucess. 1 1/2 " is the biggest and 1 3/8" is slightly smaller. I do not have the set but can guess SU made them to fit in there punches. I have Su punches too I love them.

I'm thinking either of the large Circle SU! Punches should work, the 1 1/4 or the 1 3/8 inch. If you had both, you could layer the punched out stamped image on a coordinating color piece of CS...

Default Question about Big Pieces

Is there a circle punch that punches the Big Pieces the right size or do you have to cut them out by hand?

Thanks!
Lisa

I would love to hear an answer to this, as I just got my big pieces and haven't even mounted them yet. Please let there be a punch --- I hate cutting by hand!

Not all of the pieces are the same size, but the 1 1/4 inch and the 1 1/2 inch punches work great!!

Here's an example of the punches used with big pieces. Works great.
