Daisy Border, Corner "Punch" and Daisy Frame

Here is a Daisy Border and corner "punch" that you can use to make any borders or even Frames. I created the 4x6 frame to show how this can be done. If you need a smaller border, use a cutting shape and change this from 6 or 4 to 2, 3, or 5 daisies. Add two of the 6 daisy borders together to create a 12 inch border. The possibilities are endless. To create the frames just use the copy, mirror, flip and weld functions in MTC.
Enjoy!!

Layout for a Challenge

Here is a layout I did for a "border" challenge. If you will see I used the cat border that I had shared. Check my site for the Borders mtc file for this.

On this layout I used mtc to create and cut the cat border and the large spiderweb. I used silver stickles on the spiderweb. I used a Tilda stamp (from Magnolia stamps) and colored it with the Copic markers. I also used the Martha Stewart Punch around the page - spiderweb punches around this mat and then added a couple more mats with ribbons.

Comments about the borders

Hi All,
just wanted to say thank you to all that left a comment. It is truly appreciated and I am glad to share these with you.

Now I started to just answer this comment, but thought ....Uhmmm, others may want to know too. So....

thanks for sharing your awesome borders - how did you do these. I played around after watching Rob's video but didn't come up with anything this cute. How did you get the words inside the border? Thanks for sharing.



Here was going to be my response but sharing in case others were wondering also:


To get the words inside the border: You just type in the words in the add text group box and then place it on your mat. Then move/drag the word(s) "inside" of the border (rectangle) where you want them to be. Then you select all of the "rectangle/with words" and then just click on "join".....they are now in the border like the one in my Happy Birthday border.
PS.....I used the stencil font for this one. Remember when placing letters inside, think of how they will cut out. For instance an "a" the inside will be cut out so that you just have the edge layer....so you would have to somehow keep that inside to glue in place. The stencil font works great for these though.


As far as the other images. Just add them to your mat then place them along the border they way you want them placed. Make sure a little of the bottom edge of the image is touching the top (or bottom if you have the image descending) and once you have them overlapping "just a little" then select all of the border/images in one selection box, then do a weld. This makes it all one piece.....PS....you do not want to add any words until you have finished the weld....so that you can do a "join" with the letters. If you add the letters first "inside" of the border and click on weld they will disappear and be welded into the border.

Hope this helps with some questions about how to make these borders. The possibilities are whatever images you choose to work with....just think of a "theme" and go for it!!!

More Borders

NOTE:.....When you download these files, I have the images locked. On the Layers Property box click on the global lock at the bottom to unlock all images to move them around on the mat for cutting. **You will have to move the ones that are placed on the edge of the mat to move them from the grey/shaded border around the mat. Please leave me a comment if there are any problems so that I can help. Thanks, Sandy
And here are few more....I am having so much fun creating these.

Borders

I have been playing around creating borders that can be used for any papercrafting project.

Over at the MTC-Hints Yahoo Group (which I am a member of) this weeks challenge is to create a border(s). So here are a few I have put together. I am having fun with these.



If you would like to have this .mtc file, please click HERE.
The name of each border is listed in the Layers Property Box. I hope you enjoy them and find them useful.

I will be making more to post, check back again.
