A (Bright!) Green Birthday

I was playing around with a Martha Stewart corner punch, and came up with this.


I just lined the corner punch up from the back, and used it to make this border.  I used Green Galore (I think.  I can never remember which is Gable Green and which is Green Galore!)  I stamped a strip of white with a stamp from the stamp set "Trimtastic" from Stampin' Up! with the same color green as the border.  I glued it on the green, and added a couple scored lines on each side of the stamped border and pearls between the punched designs.  I matted the whole piece with black.  The sentiment (from The Paper Company) is stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink.


Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

  4. Oh this is wonderful Lynette. I love how you made the border. How clever. I just love it. I think the green with the black is brilliant. Love the stamped strip...looks like tissue tape.
