You Scallop Card

This is another swap creation, I think from November. Our "mission" was to use the Big Shot or do a gift card holder. This would work for either.

The base of the card is a scallop cut with the large scallop die for the Big Shot. It opens just like a regular card. Notice at the top that it's straight. I placed a folded piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock at the top of the die, with the fold just over the top edge of the die so it stays intact. Clear as mud? If that doesn't make sense, let me know and I'll find a clearer way to explain it!

The colors here are Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette & Baha Breeze. The pink scallop is cut with the smaller scallop die for the Big Shot from Bella Rose DSP. The Y's are from the Defining Alphabet and the you definition is from the coordinating Define Your Life set. I can honestly say I haven't used these sets much, but they were perfect for this creation! The you definition is stamped in Chocolate Chip on a Key Tag punch of Baha Breeze, the Y's in Chocolate Chip on the Pink Pirouette DSP. The flowers are from the Flower Fusion Too Accents & Elements kit. Rhinestone brad in the center. Baha Breeze striped grosgrain ribbon is tied around the top of the card.

I have another one of these that I did with my club ladies. Different colors as I used of most of my flowers in these colors for the swap. I hope to make it to my room tomorrow to work a little so I'll try and dig up the November club projects to share! Hope you're all having a great weekend!
