Tuesday Tutorial: Faux Edge Anchors

Saturday, a few friends and I created the Grace workshop I had advertised earlier in the month. (My last two posts were the layouts from the workshop.) We had a great time chatting, stamping, scrapping, and card making! We got sooooo much done!

Joy was so clever! She created this adorable faux edge anchor by using a small rectangle of Barn Red card stock (AKA scrap destined for the trash), added two brads, and created a cute embellishment. I love it!

If you give this new technique a try, be sure to leave a comment linking your creation so we can check it out. Very cool use of scraps! Thanks, Joy!

  1. You are quite welcome, it was a neat way to use some scraps and brads. And it was a fun class. I've still got 6 more cards to make, probably tomorrow.

  2. I wish I could do that. I am such a brad hoarder. I have a drawer full and three cases of craft jars full and rarely ever use one. Maybe I can try this on my next card. Thanks and thank Joy for the inspiration.
