Just wondering what you ladies are using to make the cute spiral stretches in the cards lately. Coluzzle? Punch? free form?

OMG! Another person from Austin! I live in Georgetown! Cool (well, not so much here, as you know- HOT!), I have been looking around for some examples of this kind of card after I saw it demo'ed at Covention 2008! I have to demo this technique myself at our post-convention team meeting next week. I think anyway that you can make a circle will do- just make sure it is big enough when you cut it into a spiral that you can open the card all the way without the spirals on the inside popping off! Does that make sense? Here are some blogs that I have found that have tutorials/examples of what you are looking for! HTH's!

Just scroll down in their blogs to find what you want- I don't know how to link to their direct posts concerning spiral technique:confused:

Both of these ladies blogs are so much fun to look at and they do wonderful work! Let me know if this is what you are looking for!

The short answer to your question is that it is a circle punch that is cut freehand into a spiral. I have this on my list to try.
Lisa, the way to link to a direct post is to click on the title of the post so that it is the only one on your screen and then copy the address bar.
HTH!

Thanks, Jana! I just started a new blog also and am having to learn a lot concerning adding URL's/posts/links and such to my blog as well as to SCS! I just uploaded a project for the very first time on SCS the other day- I guess I just get intimidated by the whole computer thang!

Thanks for the short answer also! I sorta get chatty and then forget to get to the point when typing!

And for the OP, i just found some examples of this card here in the SCS gallery- I searched for "Coil pop-up cards" and it worked. There is also one other thread (at least one) here:

Forums at Splitcoaststampers

Oh My! I hope that worked!
