I really restricted myself this time around buying new stamp sets from the preview sets...I bought...NONE...you read that right! Zero, Zilch..Nada! However there is hope..I bouth the In-Colours and the punch and the new designer paper. I like the new colours...will grow to love them I know..it is already happening. I am not a big user of blue stuff and there are two blues this year...so will have to sit and make myself play at some point. I know I will love them all...but they are not Wasabi! :-(
This was the third card for Club members this month, using new colours, new DS paper, and the wonderful new scallop punch! This punch is so easy to use! You can line it up two ways...top side or (as I always do) by viewing from underneath. Again this card was inspired by a card I saw on a blog and because I have yet to work out how to track blogs with the RSS feeds on a Mac I cannot find the blog again..(update: FOUND IT!!! HERE ). This is another set I received FREE from SU..been wanting this particular stamp for a long time :-)
Anyone who owns a Mac who can help me to store the RSS feed please feel free to e-mail me. I will go take some classes at the Apple store after convention :-)
Here are a few pictures on how to use the scallop punch...WHAT??? Could this be my first tutorial? I know it has been done already but I have to start somewhere right? LOL
First punch out the middle of the edge you wish to scallop.
You will get something like this....
Now looking from the TOP you would line up the punched scallop shapes with the scallop guide on the punch. Do this to both sides of the initial punch on card stock
You can also line the scalloped edge up with the scallop punch from the bottom.
So much easier than using the slit punch and the corner rounder like we all did last year :-)
Thanks for dropping by! Hope this tutorial helped someone !!! LOL
