In the papercrafting field, there are so many types and designs of adhesive border stickers that come out with new collections. But once you craft that holiday/season/theme, there are sometimes some random extra borders that weren’t used. I challenge YOU to use these pieces in more crafts, even outside of the holiday originally intended!
I needed a few masculine birthday cards recently so I went in my stash and pulled out these fun garland designs from an Americana collection. Sure, if I put these borders next to some stars and stripes, you’d know they were Americana, but with this modern mix of patterns, it works perfectly for these manly birthday wishes.

These adhesive borders are from an older K&Company Christmas line. When paired with these even older canvas tag stickers, these once holiday borders are now ready to be sent for some birthdays.

This last card may have kept the black and orange Halloween color pallete of this Halloween adhesive border, but the accent pieces bring it on back to the birthday theme!

Brilliant, T! I recognize a lot of those “oldies but goodies” from my own stash. I love the way your turned holiday-themed products into evergreen, year-round projects! Will have to give it a go!
Thanks Carla! I’d love to see your “use your stash challenge” craft! :)
