For today's challenge of using scallops, I used my MS Framed Dots border punch, which I think looks rather vintage. Rolled my wheel in Sahara Sand ink and stamped on VV cs and framed in Soft Suede. I sponged some Sahara Sand and Soft Suede ink over the top to distress it a little. It looks better IRL. I added a couple of vintage brads to finish it off. Oh, and my sentiment is stamped in Early Espresso. TFL!
