I am very new to SU and stamping though I've been a scrapbooker for 5 years. In looking at the gallery I see these cute circles with scallops on many cards. Is this a circle punch and a scallop punch? Please help find out how to make this cute accent.....
Traditionally these scallops would have been made by punches. If you have a die cutting machine there are now dies available. If you go to Ellen Hutson's blog at ellenhutson.typepad.com she talks about brand new scallops being introduced by Spellbinders.
Hey, Stampin' Andrea, I love thse 2 blogs you linked to! That's another great way to do it! TFS!
And I love Created by Courtney's background music. I thought I had turned on itunes by mistake. Closed the window and the music went away... so I went back ans snooped around more so I could listen to the end!

I am too cheap to buy the scallop punches so I use the Coluzzle to cut out the circle (or oval), then trim the edges with scallop/wavy scissors. It's not absolutely perfect, but close enough.

I agree. I now have the Giga Circle and the Giga Oval, but before that I traced and cut the shapes using plastic templates, then went around with the scallop scissors. You can get a nice effect that way if you are patient and take your time.
Even though I have the giant punches, I still trace the smaller sizes to put in the middle rather than get the other size punches.
