Decorative Borders with Go To Greetings Thank You Card

Welcome to my Corner of the World

Of all the decorative paper packs in the 2022 – 2023 Annual Catalog Texture Chic has been my absolute favorite – I lost count of how many packs I bought as I used it in a lot of classes!

Welcome to my Corner of the World

I have a ‘go to’ layout I like to use occasionally, particularly when I have a little creative block ~ I find once I have my basic pieces cut the rest will flow from that.

I have combined the Petal Park Stamp Set with the coordinating punch with the Celebrating You Stamp set for my greeting along with one of my favorite subtle color combinations to show the same layout for an anniversary card and one for Easter, there is also a video tutorial to follow along with 🙂

Since the stamp set has different greeting such as birthday, celebrate and friend – the layout and colors could be used to cover different occasions.
