"Scallop Trim" Tutorial

Yet another use for the ever popular Scallop Circle Punch! You can make a Scallop Trim with it! Here's how:



First punch out a 1 1/4" circle.





Then around the punched out circle, punch out a Scallop Circle.




Make a snip into the circle so you can then open it up.



Carefully fold the scallops over onto each other (I start from the center), so the circle ends up in a straight line. Well, sort of straight! It will stretch out to about 4 1/4 inches long.



Adhere the strip onto the back of the paper that you are adding the scallop trim to, lining it up so it's straight. Make sure your adhesive is close to the edge, since the trim is pretty narrow. Trim off the excess ends.





Flip over the paper and make sure the trim is how you want it. You may need to adjust it a bit to make everything look even.


Add it to your card, and there you go! An easy way to add a Scallop Trim! This is one of the projects we did at my February Stamp Camp.

At Stamp Camp we make 2 projects for $5.00. If you want to stay and stamp, which includes the use of my stamps and supplies to work on your own things, then the cost is $10. It is usually held on the 2nd Wednesday of the month. Be sure to check my calendar for the next date!
