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!

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. WT362 Peaceful Border

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.

This challenge about did me in! I don't have too many border punches and had a brain freeze with the one I did use though I love what I ended up with! Just Me. Thanks for the challenge...really good job on your first! Here's to many more.
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
