Thats not very thick paper - and even at that thickness the Fiskars border punches don't cut cleanly.

One is a friskers, too. I didn't cut thick card, and they were all hardly used, but my old favorites are still going strong on the same card. I wondered if they are using cheaper materials to mass poduce quicker or something. I sent my fiskars ones back to them when that happened. Mine was hardly used also. They replaced them for me.

Seems a faff but it does work for me, the punch usually does quite a few punches before it needs waxing again.
