A couple of weeks ago I made a scalloped edge background layer by cutting cardstock only partway with a Nestabilities die. I was trying to think of other ways to use this "partial nesties" technique. Here's a card that I made using a similar partial cut, but in a slightly different way.
This time I used a scalloped rectangle die and only put one corner of it through the machine between the cutting plates. I scored and then folded the cardstock back to make a window of sorts. I liked the effect of using this with double-sided cardstock. The stamped images are by Danelle Johnson/Art Warehouse and the sentiment by Hero Arts. I used a Quickutz Curlz Goosebumpz folder to emboss the strip of cardstock across the front.
Welcome to Indigo Inklings. This is where I talk about some of my rubber stamping projects and digital graphics. My blog name comes from the fact that I love the color indigo, and I think the notion of inklings covers my introspective side as well as my love for getting inky with my projects. I hope you find something here to interest or inspire you.
