Default tag sheets or tag punches?

I am just wondering if there is anyone out there besides me that would like SU to come out with a line of tag punches? I am a demo and love using tags on my cards and scrapbook pages but find the tag sheets a little frustrating. The tags always seem to be the wrong size, color or style for what I want to create. I would love to see punch similar to the new circle and square punches, so we could layer them. I also love the look of a scalloped tag but refuse to cut them by hand, coming out with a line of scalloped tag punches would solve the problem. So, I'm just wondering if anyone else out there feels the same way I do?

TIA for any comments.
Amy

I don't mind the tag sheets at all. I also have the Coluzzle tag template and I like to use that to create just the right colour I need.

Count me in for tag-sized punches, too! The flexibility would be tremendous. I do have a few non-SU tag punches, but I'd gladly buy the SU ones if they come out with them.

that is the main reason I asked for a sizzix for Christmas! I love being able to punch as few or as many tags as I need in whatever size I want and whatever colors I want! It's fantastic!

Yes, yes, yes!!! I wish we would get a few different sizes of tag punches.

Send a suggestion to ds! I did (twice) about carrying various sized tag punches. They listen to us, so give 'em a call or an e-mail.

Another vote for tag punches. And I would like them to "nest"

Tag punches have been out for a long time. Mcgill carries them as does marvy I think.

www.franticstamper.com has some of the newest ones available and the orignal ones too. Check out her home page for the punches available, here is the link to the newest tag punches.

The link: http://www.franticstamper.com/mcgill.htm

I have the McGill Multi-Tag Triple punch in the scallop style (they have several) one punch makes 3 tags in 3 sizes. I also have an EK Success Tag punch and it is wonderful. No way would I buy tags or tag sheets when these can make thousands in any color, with patterned paper, etc. They even are great to make tags using paper bags.

I e-mailed Stampin' Up a while ago asking for tag punches. I have the McGill scalloped punch that does three at once and use it constantly. I just wish they could be layered. I find the tag sheets tough to work with. Plus, they only come in a few colors. They don't work for classes because there are not enough of one size usually. Oh Stampin Up please hear our plea!!

It's the main reason I'm thinking of buying a Sizzix this spring.

That is why I love my Sizzix, but I too would love a portable hand held punch.

It is really nice to see that I'm not alone. I plan to take Nancy's advice and send a suggestion to ds. I'm sure the more people they hear from the greater our chances are so fill free to join me.

Default Punches

I agree about having tag punches. IN fact I have a few. One you push with all your might which is bad for my back and one you punch with your thumb . The only set back I see is for the BIG tags which I am really starting to like.

By the way for those who want to know; I am doing OK after my back surgery. It was a little worse than what they thouhgt at first. I need to go back on Tuesday and have a CAT done to make sure nothing is wrong with my leg because of my leg pains.

I too would like the tag punches that would be stackable. There are all sorts of tag punches out there, but I have yet to find one that lets you layer or stack them.

I have some tag punch dies from Sizzix and a Coluzzle tag set. That would be the only reason I wouldn't want SU to come up with one.

I would love to see them in the new catalog, but since they sell the tag sheets, I would think it's unlikely, unless they do away with the tag sheets.
I have 2 pks of them, and never think to drag them out and use them.

I *love* tags as well. . . Have you tried the Sizzlets tag set? It retails for under $20, and it comes with four dies--curved, scalloped, pointed, and oval tags, and they each have two nesting layers with a 1/8" reveal. . . Of course, they are small tags, but they are my favorite sizzix/Sizzlet product!

I just ordered a new tag punch from McGill they just came out with. There are various sizes, including smaller ones that have three tags on one punch. I haven't received it yet, so I don't know about layering yet. I would lLOVE it if SU offered tag punces of all sizes, big to small.
Happy Stamping!
