There are a ton of scalloped punches being used on cards and I'm wondering what size is being used on most of these cards? Is it the giga scalloped or the mega?
Unfortunately right now I only have the scalloped square punches. But I have both the mega and the giga- and they layer perfectly. Here is a card I used those on so you can tell the size difference. The part with the martini glass is the mega and the red around it is the giga.
Mega Scalloped Circle - 2 1/2" diameter
Giga Scalloped Circle - 3" diameter
Mega Scalloped Oval - 1 3/4"w x 2 1/2"l
Giga Scalloped Oval - 2 1/4"w x 3"l
Mega Scalloped Square - 1 3/4" square
Giga Scalloped Square - 2 1/4" square
Hope this helps with your decision
Thanks so much for the actual dimensions on these punches! Now for another related question - where should I go to buy these? I have not been able to find them at any of the local scrap/craft stores - what internet source should I use? Who is reliable, fast and won't eat me alive with shipping charges? Anxiously awaiting suggestions....:-D
I love them both. I have quite a few smaller stamps that fir really well in the megas. I'm sure many of you have seen LisaLisa's gallery. She makes a lot of smaller cards, like 4 1/4 X 4 1/4. After seeing her gallery, I've done a few and the mega works really well for those too. SO, it's a hard choice. I would buy the Giga if I could only have one, but if I could have two, I'd get a mega also.

I have ordered mine from www.franticstamper.com
She is very nice to deal with, has reasonable shipping charges and is fast to ship.
Thanks for the link! I was hoping someone would do that while SCS was down with server issues earlier today - you didn't let me down! Off to measure the punches I have and compare them to the ones listed so I don't end up with 2 of one size and none of another ...ha!
Got mine from www.1stopsquare.com That was just before Christmas, so I don't know what their stock looks like now. I ordered the Mega circle and Mega scallop. LIke the size, but now I want the Giga. Just gotta have it all-LOL!

I have the Giga Scalloped Circle and Oval. I just made my Christmas Thank Yous as square 4�x4� cards and used the Giga Scalloped Circle punch on it. I will take photos of the cards as soon as it's light here in SoCali to post in my gallery. I really like the big size as it gives me more options on which stamps I can use inside.
