Stampin Up Punches and Matching Stamp Sets

A catalogue listing of punches from SU - year unknown.  Photo: pinterest

Dies have really taken off the last few years but I still love my punches.   A lot of people who are just starting out love them too as they don't need to have a die cutting machine, which can be a big expense.   My Big Shot is in a cupboard so its nice to be able to do a quick punch out rather than having clear a space on the craft table and pull out the machine.

If you have punches, have you ever wondered WHAT stamp set that punch fits? I have, many times!  The only list I could find online was on Splitcoast Stampers but it was written c. 2007 which is rather outdated.

When you can't find something, sometimes you just have to do it yourself ... so I went through my old catalogues over a few nights and made a note of all of the punches that co-ordinated with stamp sets that I could find (back to around 2008).

Hopefully I haven't made 1) any typos; and 2) missed many!

So here is the list of punches from around 2008/9 to 2017 and what stamp sets they can be used successfully with.  The list from Splitcoast Stampers is below as well - I haven't incorporated it into my list as I can't vouch for the accuracy.

Note, the list is in alphabetical order - so not necessarily in smallest to biggest. oldest to newest etc.

I'd love to know if you find it useful / find an error / want to update it with extras that may not be listed (and if so I will endeavour to correct/ make additions).
