This was a card that I made at a shoebox swap a couple of weeks ago. I've ordered the set for myself but this gave me a good idea of how neat the set really is! There’s a lot of detail here but it wasn’t hard to make and it looks really cute I think. The Always Artichoke and Certainly Celery scalloped circles were adhered to each other "off center" so that the Always Artichoke looks like a larger sized circle. The Slit Punch was used to make the scalloped edge on the Real Red cardstock. The Crop-A-Dile was used to make the raised detail on the scalloped red piece. Beate had a tutorial on her website some time back on how to do this without punching a hole through the paper. You can find the directions at http://beate.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/2007/08/31/crop-a-dile-easy-as-1-2-3/Recipe:
