TEACHING Tuesday - July 24

I thought I'd post a little tutorial this morning.


I've seen lots of scalloped cardstock lately and with all the colors, it's difficult to know which ones to buy. If you have a corner punch, you can easily make your own scalloped cardstock or patterned paper.

I used my EK Success punch, and I removed the bottom piece.

Then, it's just a matter of lining your punch up along the edge of your paper. It's easier to do it upside-down as you can see where to punch.

Continue along the length of your paper and you're done!

Oh my gosh, I had no idea this is what people were doing! I wondered how this effect was done. As usual, it's much simpler than I expected-can't wait to try!
