The Basic Borders Dies are so lovely for a quick border on a greeting card. The beautiful cut-out border on cards with the Basic Borders dies by Stampin’Up! is great for all occasion greeting cards.
The Basic Borders Dies set had 6 different style borders. Also, the dies have beautiful stitched and amazing detail on all six dies.
Today stamp set choice is the Color & Contour Bundle, and the designer paper is In Good Taste. Note that In Good Taste Designer paper is on sale this month, so only four days left to take advantage of the designer paper sales.
The Basic Borders Dies Tip Video With Frenchie
In this video, you will find many great tips to use the border dies for card making.
Showcase Of Cards With the Basic Borders Dies
Below you will find the display of cards using the Basic Border dies. I have all six of the border showcase for you. The cards can be horizontal or vertical, although the horizontal will not stand by itself because the card’s front is short than the back. The horizontal can be displayed with an easel or prop against an object.
Now you can check out all the fine detail on each style border.
The flowers on each card are using the stamp set Color & Contour. The color of the flowers is Fresh Freesia, Pale Papaya, and Flirty Flaming with the So Saffron in the center of them all.
All prints of the designer paper are from the collection of the In Good Taste that is on sale this month. Great time to stock up on this paper.
Measurements
- Basic White or Very Vanilla 8½ x 5½ score at 4¼ *I recommended scoring before the die-cut.
- In Good Taste Designer Paper, this will vary depending on the die and where you will die-cut, but the average is 5½ x 1¾. All is explained in the video.
- Basic White 6 x 2 for the flowers.
What is your favorite border? I know today can be this or that, and tomorrow will be another one.

Meanwhile, the greatest compliment you can give me is a referral to a friend. I really appreciate any help you can provide.
Very nice. I would, however, like to see what you put on the inside of the cards, especially if you do a double cut and leave an opening between them.
On the inside you have the strip of designer and kept the other section plain for the space to right
