Instant Love

I guess this is a week of love here on the blog! :)  I'm having fun scrapping pictures of my niece, but I need more pictures to choose from... all I have are from the first week!!
From Flamingo Scraps: Pink Paislee Sweetness Collection patterned paper and Cushies (alphas)
Other supplies:  Stampin' Up! very vanilla cardstock, border punches, heart punches, and linen thread; Making Memories Je t'adore patterned paper (pink polka dot); pink fine point sharpie; Studio Calico Polaroid Stamp

I keep seeing border punches to layer monochromatic strips of cardstock - been on my mind to try lately!  So I did that to make a full background as a base for my layout.  I fussy cut out the flowers from one of the Pink Paislee Sweetness patterned papers to use on the corners. 

I also ran out of the letter "s" and had to improvise by trimming the number "8" a bit.  I think it turned out okay, though I'm tempted to buy another set of that alphabet and replace it... I won't but I'm definitely tempted! ;)
Have you done anything like this with your border punches?!
