Technique of the Week: Scallop Card Closure


This 3" x 3" card was made using the scalloped tag topper punch

1.  Cut paper to 3" x 6 1/4"
2.  Place paper in the punch (as shown in the figure above).  Center the paper and punch.  Flip and punch the other side.
3.  Trim off the tabs of paper left from punching.
4.  Score one of the scalloped ends. 
5.  Score the paper at 3" from the first score line.
6.  Fold along the score lines.

This technique can be used to make cards of all sizes.  You can also use this technique with other punches (slipping the paper in when it is not the designed size for that punch).
