Share The Funfair With Admission Ticket Borders

Step right up, we have just the ticket for you — we’re admitting one and all to use the Admission Ticket Border Punch! Many of us scrappers like to keep (those not privy to scrapbooking may say “hoard” ?) old receipts, newspaper clippings, movie stubs, trading cards and tickets aplenty — train, concert, amusement park, plays, musicals, VIPers and more — in order to save and relive those treasured trinkets and memories. So here’s your ticket to the past with a few admission ticket borders!

Hint: You can also save your tickets and other bits of memorabilia in CM’s Peekaboo Pockets™! These clear, photo-safe pockets allow you to slide photos, journal mats or artwork into the pockets and use the adhesive strip to easily attach them to your layout pages or the album binding. And they’re repositionable, so if you want to change where you placed your pockets, you can easily move them.

To create these borders you will need:
