This border embossing folder was in the Spellbinders Advent Calendar 2023, I think it makes for a pretty border. I went with all brighter theme on this one, the paper pad also had this pretty tag image, I added the stamped sentiment and a gem and was done.

I would like to share this card with Can You handle the Pressure blog Birthday Challenge
I do have a second card that I used some sequins from the spellbinder advent calendar. The paper and all images came from the same pack on this one, adding a little faux stitching to it also.

Those colours in the first card look wonderful together. The textured pink card is lovely. The second card is such a happy one. Love those itty bitty florals.
ReplyDeleteOoohh I love when a little "bling" is added on cards like this. They're both so cute! Blessings. xo

ReplyDeleteUsing borders to bring a "break" to the other two papers is a wonderful design idea, Connie! That pretty SB border embossing is especially lovely. The faux stitching borders on your butterfly card is a great detail. I love adding stitching and dots to my cards! Wishing you a fantastic week-end my friend! hugs, de
ReplyDeleteboth are beautiful...that faux stitching must me difficult to do so well!!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea so many things were in the advent calendars. Love the pretty embossed border. It's very crisp and your colors and papers all coordinate beautifully. Cute papers and whimsical butterfly on your second card. The sentiment is perfect for it because it is definitely a happy card!
ReplyDeleteThat is a very pretty border emboss. Love the beautiful papers on both of these cards. Really lovely.
