Garland Banner Border Punch

I’m dedicating this layout to everyone who has joined me for my Virtual Croptoberfest this year. Last weekend we met on Zoom to chat and create my exclusive Croptoberfest layouts. And the fun is continuing as everyone is completing and sharing their layouts in our private Facebook group. You can still join the fun by registering for my Virtual Croptoberfest Workshop!

After completing my Croptoberfest layouts, I had a small amount of paper and cardstock leftover and challenged myself to use it to create a last layout.

I used the only full leftover sheet as my background and cut scraps into strips to create my diagonal borders. I used the Rustic Truck and Garland Banner Border Punches to create some fun layered borders for the layout. If you love these punches, you’ll want to join my Virtual Croptoberfest to see a few different ways to use them.

Lately we’ve been seeing more vellum from Creative Memories. Currently CM offers the Autumn Cottage Vellum Paper Pack, Something Blue Vellum Paper Pack, Serene Waters Vellum Paper Pack and the Cue the Blue Vellum Paper Pack. Each pack contains 5 sheets of different colors and some have designs.

As I’m often asked for ideas on using vellum, I decided to play with the new Autumn Cottage Collection and created the layout below that features the vellum from the collection.

I used the Circle Punch from Creative Memories to punch 1-3/4″ circles from a sheet of the Autumn Cottage Designer Paper and the Autumn Cottage Vellum Paper. I adhered the circles in rows and used the Vellum Tape Runner Refill to adhere the vellum circles. My photo mats are 3-1/2″ x 5-1/2″. I used the new Garland Banner Border Punch layered with Autumn Cottage Stickers to create some decorative pieces for the layout.

Please view my demonstration video for tips on assembling the layout, using the Vellum Tape Runner Refill and tips for the Garland Banner Border Punch.
