JustRite Border Stamps...

Today, the design team of JustRite Stampers is showcasing two gorgeous border stamp sets: Classic Scallop Borders One, and Lace Borders Two. 

I just love how versatile these borders are! If you'll remember, I created a sweet birdhouse using Classic Scallop Borders One, and you can see that post HERE! I decided to use the same technique that I used for the birdhouse roof for my card today. The "shingle" effect is quite striking against the paper I used. I just fell in love with the colors in the new Die Cuts with a View Coral Couture paper stack and had to use it!

I stamp the border three times on green cardstock with Versamark ink, and embossed with Rangers Seafoam White Embossing Powder. I cut the borders out with scissors but you can also cut them with Spellbinders E8-001 Classic Scallop Edgeabilities. I then glued the border strips to my patterned paper, staggering the scallops, as shown. I added my sentiment from the With Sympathy stamp set, and tied a pretty silk bow, then mounted it to my white card. My last touch was adding pearls I had colored with Copic Marker R43.

My first card is a pretty fan using the Scrolled Vine Background and Lace Borders. My sentiment is from the With Sympathy stamp set.

Spring Crocus...

Here's a pretty card I created using a stamp set called Spring - A Little Bit Sketchy by Sheena Douglass. This card worked up fast! I stamped the image and colored it with Copics, shaded around it with a sponge dauber then mounted it to a green panel. I stamped the sentiment on my white card and outlined the large words with a Copic Marker, added a May Arts silk bow, and three blue rhinestones and I was done!
