Fabulous Sketch Challenge

This card was for SCS sketch challenge #139 on SCS. I this this may just be my favorite sketch challenge yet. I'm probably going to do this one again with different colors/stamps. =)-Stamps-Fabulous Flowers, It's All Good and Polka dots & Paisley
-Ink-Soft Sky, Purely Pomegranate and So Saffron
-Paper-Soft Sky, Purely Pomegranate, So Saffron and Chocolate Chip cardstock. Rose Red and So Saffron prints DSP.
-Accessories-Pewter hodgepodge hardware, Pomegranate double stitched ribbon, blender pen (filled with future floor wax) and pearl-ex powder.
*In case you haven't heard of this, you can put future floor wax in a blender pen and use it to paint with pearl ex powder. Just dip the end of the blender pen into the lid of the pearl ex. I'm not sure how well it shows up in the picture, but I used this around the edges of the flower to give it a little sparkle.

Scallop circle with corner rounder punch tutorial

1.) First of all, you will need to cut out a circle. You can use any type of circle cutter you like. The circle I used is 31/2 inches (Please note, I am using the old corner rounder, so the measurements may not work for the new one) Remove the guide from your corner rounder punch. To do this gently pull on the side and it comes right off.

2.) After you have removed the guide flip your corner rounder punch over so you can see the bottom. On the bottom of the punch you will see a V. Hold your cardstock up to that V like the picture below (thats not a very good picture by the way. You want to make sure that your cardstock is flush up against the V). Punch the first scallop. When you punch the second scallop make sure you are right up against the first scallop so you don't have any gaps.

3.) Continue to go all the way around the cardstock.

4.) Finish your card! The circle I put in the middle is 3 inches. The scallop edge at the bottom is done the same way, just without the circle.

Doodle This and Palette O' Prints

Well I just finished this one. It took me forever to do. I just couldn't seem to figure out how I wanted to finish it =). I just tried the making the scalloped edge with the corner rounder punch for the first time. For whatever reason, I've been thinking all along you had to use the slit punch (which I keep forgetting to order), and I just found out you can use the corner rounder punch, so needless to say I had to try it (Check out Beate's blog for directions). And I know I stamped the sentiment really crooked. I just didn't feel like redoing it all =).

Stamps: Doodle this and It's Your Birthday.
Paper: Chocolate Chip Cardstock. All other paper used it from the Palette O' Prints sampler pad.
Ink: Whisper White Craft, Black StazOn, and Chocolate Chip Classic.
Accessories: Chocolate Grosgrain ribbon, White Signo gel pen
