Halloween Paper Medallions

1. Gather the two pieces of 12-inch by 12-inch scrapbook paper and scoring tool on top of the cutting mat. Use the scoring tool to score the scrapbook paper every inch.

NOTE: To create one medallion, you will need two pieces of scrapbook paper in the same design, each 12-inches by 12-inches

2. Using the paper cutter, cut the two pieces of scored scrapbook paper in half, perpendicular to the scored lines you created in step 1. This will give you four pieces of scrapbook paper, each 6 inches by 6 inches.

3. Place the Halloween-themed decorative tape along the edge of the scrapbook paper, perpendicular to the scored lines, and use the decorative edge punch to create a design along the tape.

Repeat this step to decorate each of the pieces of scrapbook paper.

4. Fold each piece of scrapbook paper along the scored lines in an accordion fashion, and roll the patterned adhesive onto the top folded edge of each piece of scrapbook paper.

NOTE: To create a medallion with a pointed edge, use the utility knife to cut the taped edge of the scrapbook paper on an angle before applying the adhesive to the folded edge.

5. Adhere the four pieces of scrapbook paper together by pressing the folded edges with adhesive together. This will create a cirle of scored paper.
