This is another of the Fab 4 swap cards I made for friends, Mary, Julie and Liz. I love the soft look on this one! I used the Pink Pirouette base, with the Pink Pirouette floral print from Bella Rose, then softened it with a layer of cardstock vellum over top, secured with pink mini brads. The bottom of the vellum and designer paper were both scalloped with the new Scallop punch.
The focal point, I used a 2 3/4 x 2 3/4 square and punched the Scallop punch (centered) on each side. That gave me a little scallop frame for the postage Love stamp. I tied some taffeta ribbon around one corner and added a cut-out butterfly to the other. I watercolored the Love stamp with my Blender Pen and the ink pads Kiwi Kiss and Pink Pirouette. Again, I LOVED how this card turned out!

Connie,
I love how you used the long scallop punch. I am definitely going to case your card.
It was fun to see and talk with you at convention.
