Why designers and crafters love them

• Clean, repetitive scalloped edge: creates a consistent border along edges, mats, and corners.
• Bold red hue: pairs beautifully with white, cream, black, or patterned papers for high-contrast designs.
• Versatile application: great for scrapbooking pages, greeting cards, invitations, gift tags, party banners, and DIY home décor accents.
• Easy to attach: compatible with standard craft glue or double-sided tape; can be hand-cut to fit irregular edges.
• Maintenance-free look: a solid color border that reduces busy-ness while delivering a refined finish.

Ideal uses and project ideas

Photo matting on a 12x12 scrapbook page emerges instantly with a red scalloped edge framing your memories. Create charming wedding invitations with a bold border that guides the eye to the text. Design festive holiday cards with a playful frame around the message. Decorate gift tags or wrap-around accents on favor bags for a cohesive theme.

How this border compares to alternatives

Compared to printed or patterned borders, a solid red scalloped border offers clean, reliable color that doesn't compete with your images or text. Its simplicity makes it a versatile base layer you can customize with stamps, ink, or handwriting without clashing with busy backgrounds.

Tips for best results

• Test with your paper stock: lighter backgrounds will enhance the scallop silhouette, while darker backgrounds create a bold frame.
• Cut to fit: use a straight edge and craft scissors for crisp, uniform lengths, or trace along existing edges for a seamless look.
• Coordinate with other reds: pull color from the border into accents like ribbons, inks, or die-cut shapes to unify your design.
