Chatterbox & scallops

Can you tell I'm loving anything scalloped at the moment!? I thought I'd try a little something  different today and came up with this card. I'm sure there must be a name for it somewhere out there but I'm not sure what it is. All I know is I love it! Here's the step by step of how I created it.....

1. Cut a piece of card-stock to 5" X 10.5".

2. Score each end at 2.75" and fold.

3. Cut 2 pieces of patterned paper for the flaps to 2.75" X 4.75".

4. In order to make the pp rounded I used the top of my ribbon jar. You could use anything   lying around your house that is round. I turned my piece of paper over (so the pencil mark wouldn't show) and I just placed the lid where I wanted and traced. I removed the lid and trimmed and then did the same with the other piece.

5. Adhere each piece to both ends of the card-stock.

6. Before I started trimming with my scalloped scissors I took my regular scissors and just lightly nicked the corner to give my scissors a good starting point.

7. Then just trim with your scalloped scissors and you're done! 

The paper is by Chatterbox from the Sun Room collection. To finish it off I used my paper piercer around each flap. I used a magnet by Basic Grey to attach the flaps together. The flowers are Primas and the sentiment is from Papertrey Inks Paper Tray set. The final dimensions ... 5X5!

Thanks so much for looking!
