Circle Circus Scallop Envelope Box


Here is the box that I made with the Scallop Envelope die! It's super easy to make! I started with two scallop envelopes and attached them to a strip of 2 3/4" x 12" kraft cardstock scored at 2 1/4", 5 1/2", 7 3/4" and 11". I corner rounded the edges of the flap and stamped the Circle Circus stamps all around the box before finally adhering it together. I created the top by wrapping a piece of bashful blue striped ribbon around the top and layering the scallop circle stamp in different colors and punching them out with different size circle punches.

I love how the scallop flaps look when you open the box. Now it's ready to fill with candy, chocolate, jewelry or any other great gift!

Circle Circus Topiary


Here is one of the cards we made last night at my New Catalog Stamp Party! I loved the topiary on this card, so I decided to create one of my own. I used the new soft suede in color and some always artichoke for the circles. I punched out a 1 1/4" square punch of textured soft suede cardstock and marked 1/8" inch from each side of the bottom and trimmed from the mark to the top corner and then scored 1/8" across the top and folded it over to create the pot.

I ran some kraft cardstock thorough the big shot with the large dots texture plate and wrapped some of the new polka dot soft suede grosgrain ribbon around it. I stamped a sentiment from the new Teeny Tiny wishes stamp set and punched it out with the small oval punch and used some twine to tie it onto the ribbon. I added a thin strip of 1/4" x 4 behind the circles for the topiary and then used dimensionals on each of the circles.

Tomorrow I'll show you the cute box I made with the scallop envelop die and Circle Circus!

Circle Circus Card #2


Here is my next Circle Circus card that I found here. I layered the scallop circle by stamping it in chocolate chip, old olive, regal rose, and rose red and then punching each one out with a different size circle and placing dimensionals in between each layer. I used the polka dot background on the regal rose and wrapped some regal rose ribbon around the layer!

Tomorrow I will share the Circle Circus Topiary card that we are making tonight at my New Catalog Open House, so stay tuned!

Circle Circus Card



I'm having so much fun playing with the new Circle Circus stamp set! It's so fun to stamp the circles, punch them out, and create all kinds of fun cards and projects! For this card, I used bashful clue, certainly celery and basic gray. I added a little bling with a brad from the silver styled hodgepodge hardware and a fire rhinestone brad.

This week I have another Circle Circus card as well as another cute box (you know I can't resist cute boxes!) to show you so stay tuned!

And don't forget, the Square Fire Rhinestone brads are on sale this week only! I will be placing an order on Friday, so please send me your order now and I will include it on the order to save on shipping!
