WT362 - Bountiful Borders (2/16/12)
Welcome...It's time for another Ways To Use It Challenge! This is my first time ever to post a challenge here at SCS, so please bear with me...I'm a little nervous!
Have you noticed all the border punches and dies there are out there? Every time I go to the craft store, I spy a new one that I just have to have! Your challenge today is to grab a border punch or two or three and see what you can do with them. You could create multiple layers, a frame, or mix and match them to create a beautiful background. If you don't have any border punches or dies, you can still play...just grab a pair of decorative scissors. Whatever you do...have fun! I can't wait to see how you use those Bountiful Borders!
Here are my samples for today's challenge: You Color My World and
You Color My World Hearts
Please remember to use the keyword, WT362, when uploading your card.
Here's the gallery: WT362 Gallery
Need help linking a card? Follow these instructions!
1. Open 2 windows: One window for your card and one for this thread.

3. Got to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)
4. Click EDIT. Click COPY
5. Go back to this thread. Click PASTE.
You�re done!

I only used one die, but I was thrilled to discover that my new Big Shot cuts the Cheery Lynn die so, so much better than my Wizard.
This was a perfect timely challenge for me, as the BS just arrived this morning , and the snowy border chimes in with my morning chore. So now it's back to defrosting the freezer, I'll be along later to enjoy the gallery.

Fun challenge, Cathy. I think many of us love our edge punches and border dies. I'm really lovin' the new Memory Box delicate ones. Thanks to you, I made another card for this year's Easter card stash.
HAPPY EASTER

WT362 Good News Candy Box
Cathy: Awesome challenge! I used Fiskar's daisy style border punch, and SU's eyelet border punch for my card. I paired it with SU's Great Greetings ("Good News") and Hallmark's Coconut Collection (2003) for my red flower. I kept with the Love theme, using a coffee takeout cup, and added some striped wrapping paper for a background, on top of a See's candy box. Here's Good News Candy Box
