This card took me FOREVER! Annie's card that inspired me is here... Retro Flowers by annieht at Splitcoaststampers If I had read more closely (or checked out her blog!) I would have realized that the scalloped circle isn't a Marvy punch, but chipboard! Anyway, I tried using my Marvy giga scalloped circle for this, but it was way too big. So I resorted to punching out a circle and scalloping (is that a word?) it with my corner rounder. Except that it kept coming out with uneven edges, so I kept starting over! (Am I starting to sound like Mothermark?) I FINALLY got it right, then went to punch the tiny holes around the scallops and my hole punch kept trying to EAT the cardstock! I'm so happy with how it turned out, and am glad to be done with it! Thanks for looking!

This is wonderful! I love how you did that circle, I'm in awe, it is hard to do that so even with a corner rounder! Love your results, worth all your effort, it's fantastic!
