NEW toys!!!

I love getting new toys to play with....and the NESTABILITES die that I have been W A I T I N G  for has finally arrived!!  The Jumbo Scalloped Border Petite is finally mine.

Materials:
     Paper WorldWin Double Mates
     My Mind's Eye
NESTABILITIES: Jumbo Scalloped Border Petite, Labels 5 and Standard Circle
Punch: Martha Stewart
Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink; "Fired Brick" and "Tattered Rose"
Stamps: JustRite "Custom Cardmaking set" and Stampers Anonymous "Urban Tapestry"
Tonic Distress Tool

I was having a hard time finding a ribbon in my stash to match this paper so the idea of the filled holes was a bust, so I just glued the cutouts back into the paper.  I distressed the circles and the patterned paper to reveal the white core and cut out some cute butterflies to go on the circles.  I love how the big scallop works for a card edge.  I can't wait to do more! This set comes with a big two sided scallop and an edge. It doesn't look like much in the package but it makes such cool shapes.
