It took me a while to decide whether I wanted to do a round or a square card for this week's challenge, and I may actually do both as it was such a fun sketch. The round sketch was just screaming for the "Scallop Circle" treatment, and so I set about making this Sympathy card using that format.
Inside View - Sincere Salutations sentiment "Thinking of You". Flower motiff from Elements of Style Set stamped in Cherry Cobbler on Whisper White Card Stock. |
To join simple weave the sides of the scallops together and put a small piece of tape across the join to hold them in place. Heres a sample of two different scallop squares that I've put together. Just make sure everything is in alignment before you add the layer with the sentiment and glue down the joined scallops so they are flat. I see mine is sticking up in this photo (go figure?). Anyways I hope this helps somebody out at some stage in their stamping life. It worked for me, and no one has ever mentioned anything about my cards being piece work. LOL! Enjoy. |
