The challenge I gave the girls this week was make a border out |
|
of paper and ink for the page. Sorry my photo is upside down. |

|
What you need: |
|
-two 12X12 pieces of textured cardstock, white or off white. |
|
-two pieces of cardstock 3 x 11 1/2: light color - these pieces |
|
will be covered so they don't need to be anything special but |
|
its best if they are light colored |
|
-2 pieces of 12 x 3 1/4 cardstock to mat the border. |
|
-3 or four ink pads |
|
-sponges |
|
What to do: |
|
1. Tear a portion of the textured cardstock into pieces. tear |
|
into strips and then break them into even smaller pieces. |
|
2. glue down to the cardstock to be covered. |
|
3. let dry well. |
|
4. Turn upside down and cut with your cutter, the edges off the |
|
torn papers so that it aligns with the cardstock. Cut off the |
|
edges that hang over the cardstock. You may have to also use |
|
scissors if your cutter doesn't cut deep enough. |
|
5. Ink the tops of the torn pieces in groupings. Use the |
|
sponges. Be sure to ink well enough so you see the defined |
|
edges on at least some of the torn papers. Check the examples |
|
on the site. |

|
6. mat onto the matting paper you have chosen, and place on |
|
your scrapbook page. |
|
7. Add lettering, stamp a stamp, or add other embellishments to |
|
complete the border. |

My example only has one photo because I chose to use this page |
|
to display my daughters preschool drawings, but others used |
|
photos. |
