    Hi all, it's CT Member Sonja here with this months' challenge.

    I love borders because they add that little extra on a page. A border is made up of different elements placed on or close to an edge. You can use brushes, paintstrokes and all sorts of elements to create your border. I love tucking my picture into the border as well, but this is not a requirement for this challenge.

    Borders need to be placed along an edge of your layout. This can be at the top top, bottom or right or left side. I like my borders to overlap the edge but you can also place your border near a edge so you can see all of it.

    For this challenge, the border must overlap one edge of your layout and must be along one side only - no corner borders please.
    The border must fill at least 90% of the side, from edge to edge.
    You may use any theme you wish but do include at least 1 photo.

    Here is my page. I decided to use the Art Crush 59 for this challenge, since the color palette went so well with the picture I wanted to use. I took masks from the templates and used those as well for my border.

    You can use your border on a standard layout, but it can also be used on a art journal page. And since you all know, I totally adore journaling, I used my border design for an art journal page as well. just to show you that you can use a border in more ways then one.

    Thank you for the challenge... and it WAS a challenge - white space pages are not easy for me.
