Decorative Borders Book Binding card with video tutorial

March 17, 2023

I shared this special card on a recent FB Live. It features a few techniques and is a fun fold card too.

It's made with the Decorative Borders stamp set seen here; a new favorite!

When I saw this pretty leaves image I thought of creating a frame with it. I show how on the video below.

This book binding fold is so easy; it's just one extra fold line!

Measurements:

Black card base 4 ¼” X 11” score at 4 ¼” & 5 ½”
White 3 7/8” square, inside is 4" square
Polished Pink 4”
Parakeet Party 1” X 4

I used my Stamparatus to create the pretty border on the Parakeet Party strip and a Baby Wipe technique for the colorful flowers. The leaves are colored with Blends markers; note the pretty shading! Parakeet Party & Granny Apple Green blends.

The greeting is from the Framed Florets set seen here.

There are so many ways you might use this set; I share a few more in the video below. It would be perfect to decorate your envelopes too!

I created this card for a Flowerbug's Team swap this month. The theme was to make a 'Window' card.

Save

My colors are Balmy Blue, Black & White here. That pretty flower is fussy cut from the True Love Designer Series paper seen here and colored with Balmy Blue Blends. It's my very favorite paper!

I textured the Balmy Blue CS before I die-cut the window; cutting them both at the same time.

Audrey, on my Flowerbug's Team is an expert at coloring and she gave me a few samples made with this set. *All I had to do was layer it and create a finished card with her beautiful colored image! Love that!

I used Sahara Sand as my card base and a few 1/4" strips of Black & White. The oval greeting with a Resin Heart finished it off!
