I love Stampin' Up's new scallop punch now that I have the hang of lining it up. I cut a 3/4" strip of cardstock and put a vertical pencil mark on the back. If I want to make ric-rac I centre the pencil mark in the grove of the scallop when I punch one edge and in the centre of the scallop when I punch the opposite edge.
This also works to make pearl necklaces with Stampin' Ups shimmery white paper. except line up both sides with your pencil mark in the groove. If you don't punch right to the end you'll get some interesting borders like the chocolate chip one I used on my card.
Only 18 more sleeps until the new catty!
