Classes

A class of .pixel-borders is applied all elements with a pixel border for demo purposes only, you should be able to add pixel borders to any elements.

The pixel borders mixin comes with a number of classes defined to demonstrate how it can be used. These can be used as is but I would encourage users to create their own customized classes.
