I saw this card at a regional convention and had to try it.  Score across the Scallop Square at matching scallops, a couple of snips and a bit of tape and you have a cute little box.  Then of course we made the mini cards to go inside.  The Diagonal Plate on the Simply Scored made it easy to make the matching envelopes.  Great for a hostess gift.

Lolly Embellishment – Gently Falling 9-10-11

I’m not sure what you call the accordion folded embellishments…. lolly, medallion, rosette?  There may be more names for them, but I called them addicting!  Stampin’ Up! sells a die for these now, The Designer Rosette Bigz XL die, $42.95  #125594.  I don’t have the die, so I make them fairly easily with the Simply Scored Tool.  A tip:Score a full sheet of Designer Series Paper then slice it into strips 1″ wide or more.  I used the Simply Scored tool to add a border to the card base too.  I combined the lolly on this card with a large button.  I sponged a little Shimmer Paint on the inked stamp to add some sparkle.
