The link is another CTMH technique video for your reference. 

This image is stamped in  Sorbet coloured ink on Sorbet coloured paper, CTMH products, and "fussycut" aka cut out, and popped up on foam tape.  This technique is also known as watermark, especially if second generation stamping since the image would be more subdued.

The other technique is very simple, making a custom border.  This is great for random letters, ransom note style, and any teeny tiny stamp images.  I put 3 stamps at a time on the acrylic block and went for it.  This shows the idea of it pretty well I think.  Borders don't have to be all 4 sides.
