Pennant Tutorial using Scallop Square Punch

Happy Thursday to you! As promised from my post earlier today, I wanted to quickly share a Tutorial with you on how I created the Grad Pennants on my Happy Graduation card! This card was part of my ensemble I created for the Stampin' Celebration Inspirational Challenge this week! I loosely followed along with this weeks Taylored Expressions Sketch Challenge as well! I flipped the sketch and left off the row of 3 brads on each side since I thought I had too many brads in my banner, but also I ran out of room!!!
Here's how you make the Pennants using the Scallop Square Punch:
1) Start by punching out a scallop square using the Scallop Square punch from Temping Turquoise card stock!

2) Then taking your Paper Snips, from the bottom middle scallop, cut an angle to the top right corner!
3) Then from that same center point, cut an angle to the top left corner!

4) Stamp the Polka Dot stamp from the For All You Do stamp set in Tempting Turquoise ink on the pennant and add the letters you wish to use for your card. The top scallop corners layer perfectly on top of each other so you can arch your banner as little or as much as you want! I added Black Brads on the right and left of each triangle, but you can also use Ribbon or Linen Thread.

Pretty simple, but I hope that helps you see another way to use your punches! I was so inspired by the SCIC challenge this week so I hope you are too!
