What are your thoughts on these birthday scrapbook borders? Will you be making them for occasions of milestone birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, fiestas and more?
Great borders! And there are always more birthdays to be celebrated! Thanks, Karen.
Love these borders. Grateful for so many birthdays celebrated with family.
The measurements are incorrect on the cake border, step 3. Should be:
(3) 1″ x 2-1/4″ pieces, (3) 1-1/4″ x 2-1/4″ pieces and (2) 1-3/8″ x 2-1/4″ pieces.
Currently it says 3 pieces that are 1-7/8″ wide and those should all be 1″ wide.
