Good morning again Fiskarettes, I hope you are well :)

Today I’m using lots of scraps from a Chipboard book I am decorating and cutting lots of strips using my 2 in 1 Corner punches but you could use a huge assortment of border punches Have a look HERE & HERE to see many more :)

You will need : 6×4″ photo, An assortment of long pattern paper offcuts, 1 x 12″ cardstock, Border punches-(I’ve used: BRAID, ROSES & VINES ) Scissors, Trimmer, Adhesive, Bling (opt) & that is it !

Instructions: First you need to punch a few strips using your Border punches, I’ve cut varying widths & lengths random & Scallop edged one larger piece using Scissors, I’ve laid them on my Cardstock base to photograph them easier.

Next arange the pieces in a ‘L Shape ‘ onto your Cardstock base show below…When you are happy with the arangement Glue the pieces down.

First glue your photo onto the corner of the ‘L Shape’ You could use two photos too !

Write Journalling onto strips approx 1cm wide & cut words out. Glue next to the photos.

I’ve cut a cloud freehand and some raindrops just to fill up the corner space. You could leave this blank of cut a shape relevant to your page.

Hope you go and use your scraps & have fun using Border strips :)

    Great idea to mix all the border punches up. I also love the cloud and raindrops. And that photo is super cute! x
