I added a border to the start to finish piece...it was a lot of fun to do because I got to be a little messy. I started with blank tracing paper:
And I stamped it with these stamps (I used a black stamp pad):
Here's after one stamp:
Here's after all of the ones I used:
No rhyme or reason, just all over the place (hence messy). So fun! It's nice to not have to be so precise all of the time.
Then I added a little paint (same blue I used on the main piece):
Then I ripped the paper into strips and Mod Podged the strips onto the edges of the piece:
Here are all of edges done:
And one last surprise:
A pop of color! That's not the last pop we'll see either... :-)
I have one more thing to do on the front and then I'll do a couple of things to finish the back...then it will be done! I'm getting closer and closer...so exciting!
To close today, I want to send out a big "THANK YOU!!" to those of you who read my blog. I discovered a couple more people who read it that I didn't know about and that was a wonderful surprise! So thanks to EVERYONE who reads it...you have no idea how good that makes me feel. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy sharing these things with you.
Have a great week everyone!
