Nestabilities:
Classic Scallop Circle and
Classic Circle Dies
I embossed the shape into the 130 lb Beckett Cardstock first to make a circle impression and then cut the scallop. Doesn*t show up very well on the photo with the Stickles glitter added around the edges..
Here are the directions for the embossing.
From the BOTTOM to the TOP using the CUTTLEBUG
A PLATE
B PLATE
TAN MAT cut as large as the cardstock you are using
3 single layers of cardstock same size as the tan mat
YOUR CARD STOCK (I used the 130 lb Beckett)
Die-cutting side down
B PLATE
Run thru the Cuttlebug and it will emboss the shapes, and NOT cut thru the cardstock. This works best with the heavier CS and will do this with all of the Nestabilities shapes. Original idea for the embossing came from Paper Trey.
