I am proud to introduce another dingbat font designed for diecutters, at least that’s how it started. Silhouette Studio, Microsoft Word and even Photoshop are among the programs that can wrap text on a path but can’t wrap objects … or so it seems. Simply put your objects in a font – problem solved. So here’s my collection of little shapes that repeat or combine to make fun borders and, for the most part, lend themselves to wrapping along a path. Hope you’ll have as much fun with it as I have.

Pinning or otherwise pointing people to this blog page is a great way to say thanks. I’d also love to see creative ways you use this font.

Love Border Bits and the tutorial to use it! Thanks so much!
Just what I needed! Thanks so much!
Great tutorial, and awesome file – thanks for sharing!
I would really love to have this but for some reason I am having trouble installing it. The message “can not install borderbits.tff. The file does not appear to be a valid font”, keeps on popping whenever I try to install it.
Never mind. I figured it out, it was on my security settings. Thanks for the file.
I can not tell you the time I have wasted trying to get text to path right. That toggle, I had NO clue! And thank you for the boarder bits, they will be fun!
Thanks so much for taking the time to make these files available for everyone! Your video tutorials are fantastic and have really brought me to a new level in Silhouette studio!
I want to be you when I grow up lol don’t know if that is possible seeing how I will be 60 in a couple of week. You are sooo talented I am so jealous. Thanks for sharing all your great files
