Make It Monday #217 with Laurie Creating Custom Borders

 

My card for  MIM 

Using other stamps to create your own border.  I wanted to use something different, hence the butterflies.  Not sure if it makes a good border.

Ok, so first of all I put the butterflies on the top of the card and then realized it needed to be underneath the top section.  I was able to get the butterflies off without much problem but the backs of the butterflies were not so easy to get the tape off so I opted to put them directly on the back of the card.   So a little improvising and I made it work.
