I loved the card that my downline made with this set and had to CASE it. I'm posting this card to show how I shortened the punch from the word window punch and then matted it using the slit punch. The technique is the same as they show for making a long tag with the tag punch.
To omit the words, it's easier to use a marker to ink just the cow. To keep the cows close to the center of the strip, I noticed how much of the wood block overlapped the top of the strip. Then I eyeballed about the same amount of overlap each time. You could use a stamp-a-majig, but I like it when the cows are not exactly the same each time.
