Fancy Borders Bundle

Hi again friends,

The Fancy Borders Bundle (#165381) is a sneak peek from the upcoming new Online Exclusives available from 4th March. The bundle includes the Fancy Borders stamp set (#165379) and Fancy Borders dies (#165380.

I stamped the image of leaves from the Fancy Borders stamp set using Pretty Peacock ink (#150083). I turned the stamp around and re-stamped it leaving a space for the ribbon & sentiment. I coloured the leaves with Lost Lagoon Stampin’ Blends (#161680). This was then cut with one of the Fancy Borders dies. I cut the Lost Lagoon card (#133686) with another die from this set. These were then taped to the Pretty Peacock card ($150886).

The Wild Wheat Rustic Striped Ribbon (#164061) is on the Last Chance list, so available while stocks last. This was wrapped around the card front, then the card front was attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

“Celebrate” was cut with the Wanted To Say dies (#161594) using Pretty Peacock card and Gold from the Silver & Gold Adhesive-Backed Glimmer Paper (#162288). I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) to attach the sentiment, and the Flat Adhesive-backed Pearls (#160449) were added to finish the card.

The Pretty Petals stamp set (#164866) is a 2 step stamping set. I stamped the leaves with Granny Apple Green ink (#147095), then stamped the flowers with Highland Heather ink (#147103).
