Create Your Own Border
There are a lot of challenge blogs out there – lots of really inspiring ones. One of my favorites is A Blog Named Hero. These awesome girls have created this site in honor of their love for Hero Arts. And now they are celebrating their first year anniversary and I was happy to create a birthday card for them.

Oh, and you see the chevron diamonds? I made that pattern myself. I used an outline diamond and stamped it repeatedly offset, then cut out the original diamond. A whole new look…
