PCA TriCorner Bold
This tool is designed to be used alone as a member of the BOLD range of PCA Perforators in many decorative ways, or in conjunction with a regular mesh grid.
It is NOT an equilateral triangle, it's needles are set in an L shape that lends itself to being used for corners when creating grid patterns. An equilateral triangle can't be used in gridwork the way that a PCA TriCorner Bold can, because it's needle setting would not be compatible with a square shaped mesh grid wiring. Easily make a square, a diamond, a rectangle with one tool! When used with it's point upward or outward, the TriCorner Bold is perfect for those delicate edges around the border of a card.
A picot edge is easily achieved by creating a row of triangle perforations on the outer border of your card, embossing a small dot inside each "triangle" and then snipping away the bonds surrounding the peaks. This leaves a delicate picot lace edge as shown in my first free pattern in the finished version.
More uses are depicted in the photo above, click on it to see the tool itself and many variations of it's usage in parchment craft.
Also available in finer gauge needles that make it's sister tool, the TriCorner Fine.
