MIM- Live Life


Hi there! Popping in quick with a card for this week's MIM technique, using non border dies to make a border. After looking through the dies I had I settled on using Meadow Greens. This is such a lovely set. I was prepared to have to possibly die cut a few times to get it right, but this was my first attempt! I do love the seamless look achieved using the partial die cut and the stamps. I matted my card front to a Fine Linen card base and kept it very CAS adding just a bit of machine stitching. Fun technique for sure! Thanks for dropping by :)

This turned out absolutely beautiful and makes me wish I had bought the dies to go with the stamp set! Love the CAS approach you took to your card too...it really didn't need anything else as it is perfect as is!! :0)

This border is amazing! I really love how it takes up the whole card on the edge, just how I pictured this challenge! Perfect. xo
