Bloom and Grow Tutorial

This morning, our altered art guru, Andrea Budjack, is back with another tutorial!

Bloom and Grow Scalloped Border

I love scalloped borders.  Although punches and die cuts are wonderful, I recently found stamping to be a great way to add detail to any project.  Today I bring you a step by step guide to using a heart stamp to create a border that is quick and easy.

Find a stamp that has an edge that can be easily cut.  Below I have used a 1.5” x 5” strip of Couture Cardstock Meadow and heart stamp from Nikki Sivils Scrapbooker (Will He Be the 1).

You only need to ink the portion that will be used in creating the border.

Once you have repeated the stamping across the strip you are now ready to cut it out.

I also used a scroll stamp to complete my project.

Supplies: “Spring Valley Monochromatic Family: Lily Pond, Meadow, Tadpole,” “White Monochromatic Family: Snow, Frosted Felt, Canvas, Alabaster Columns”

Enjoy and get creative!
