I hadn't forgotten that I promised a tutorial, and here it is. It's worth the wait! The fabulous corner rounder punch by Stampin' Up! can be used to create the most beautiful scalloped edge for your cards and scrapbook pages. Just $13.50, this is one great corner rounder! If you'd like to order one, or book yourself a workshop and receive one for free, just send me an email at

And here's how you create the scalloped edge:
STEP ONE:
Remove the guard from your corner rounder punch. To do this, pull apart the two edges of the guard that are at the end of the punch where you insert the paper. They should come away from the punch fairly easily and it will slip off completely. Set the guard aside -you won't need it to create the scallop edge.
STEP TWO:
Insert the edge of your cardstock into the punch, resting the edge along the top of the "V" you see in the window of the punch. I always start at one end of the cardstock, with the side edge just showing in the top right corner of the slit in the punch window, as you can see in this picture;
Punch your first slit here.
STEP THREE:
Slide the punch along, so that the very tip of the last slit you punched is just barely showing in the top right corner of the slit in the punch window, as shown in this picture;
Continue to punch and slide, right along the edge of your cardstock.
STEP FOUR:
You now have a completed scalloped edge on your card, ready for embellishment!
