Make your own scalloped border

Nancy Grant made this sweet Pumpkin Card using the wagon from Little Red Wagon Stamp Set and wanted to have a large scallop trim, but didn't have the right tool to die cut or punch this size.  She did a little improvising with her colluzzle circle cutter and came up with a great solution.

I love how Nancy masked the jack-o-lantern part of the stamp to make plain pumpkins in the wagon.

Here is what Nancy did to make her large scallop:

To make the smaller scalloped trim paper she simply drew a pencil line on the back of the paper and cut across the line with ProvoCraft scallop scissors.  Nancy saved the negative side of the scalloped paper and you'll see that edge in one of her other cards later this month. 

Editors Note:  I think that the Coluzzle Cutting System has been discontinued, but you can still find a few sets on Ebay.  There are so many other circle cutting systems available now, but the Coluzzle is perfectly suited to making the half circle shape show here.
