MIM #119

Make It Monday Challenge this week is "Flagged Borders"!
Love playing along with these new-to-me-techniques.  
You can join in too, check out Dawn's video HERE

 I closely followed Dawn's design, I mean why mess with the "Master"  :)
Seriously, Dawn is so talented, I could only dream of having one ounce of her creative genius!

I mounted my 'flags' and onto Kraft cardstock and border punched a peach colored piece of paper over the tops and over that,  is a strip of  Fancy Pants Designs scalloped border sticker over that.
The "Like It" and  "Love It" flags are from Martha Stewart's Wedding Collection.  I hand cut flags out of PTI small paper scraps (Happy Spots and Tea Leaves) ... Thank goodness I never throw anything away :)

Here is a close up of my flags waving in the breeze.
 
Thanks so much for stopping by!!

  9. Like It, Love It flags are just perfect for this "thank you for the gift" card. Perfect colors and your blue pearls really pop and coordinate so well with your blue flags. Great job, Helen!

  14. I agree, Dawn is definitely "the master", her projects are always beautiful! Your card came out great, the use of scraps is always something I am trying to get into, I have so many and just can't throw them out!
