Hello Sunburst

This card is a lot like one I posted last week. While cleaning up the scraps on my desk I discovered this piece of map DSP and still have some gold strips from a previous Paper Pumpkin and Vellum scraps laying there. I remembered seeing a similar card on Pinterest but decided to just see would go together. It is hard to read the expression on the gold banner but it says "birthday boy". The stars were cut using my Big Shot and the strip of stars from the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits and one of those gold foil strips laying on my desk.

Sunshine

The Sky's the Limit

Using the marbled Designer SEries Paper today to mimic the sky. This card goes together quickly. The card I saw on Pinterest stamped the plane right on the DSP. It does actually fit but it requires careful placement. I decided I would stamped it on Whisper White cardstock and then fussy cut and adhering it to the card with dimensionals. The sentiment comes from the Butterfly Basics stamp set.

Throwback Thursday with Flocked Specialty Paper

I've had a sheet of this flocked DSP on my shelf for so long! I could never decide how to use it. It always seemed a bit overpowering on its own. By layering the Smoky Slate sunburst over the DSP it toned down the flocked DSP. I used some of the DSP scrap to punch out the butterfly and the background circle. CASE from Linda Heller.

Under the Sea

I got this idea from Pinterest. It uses a only a portion of the Sunburst framelit. The waves were stamped on Pacific Point using Whisper White ink using the Oh Whale stamp. I stamped the submarine from the You're Sublime stamp set on Smoky Slate and filled in the windows using my Chalk Pen. I fussy cut the sub and adhered it using dimensionals. The expression comes from the Honeycomb Hello set.

Vellum Flower

I cut some vellum using the Sunburst thinlit and then just randomly shortened the rays. Then layered the punched circles over that. Quick and Easy. But you do have to be careful when pulling that vellum out of the sun3ellburst thinlit.

Sunburst Thinlit

 Today's card was made using the Sunburst Thinlit from Stampin' Up! To make this card I cut four of the framelits; one each from Hello Honey, Crisp Cantaloupe, Lost Lagoon and Sahara Sand. Then I used the negative pieces from the Hello Honey, Crisp Cantaloupe and Lost Lagoon to fill in the spaces on the Sahara Sand Sunburst after gluing it to a pieced of white card stock cut to 4 by 5-1/4. After all were glued down I trimmed the excess hanging over the sides of the white cardstock.  I used some of the scraps from one edge to decorate the inside. I finished off the card with stamped expression and layered circle punched shapes and some punched hearts. The hearts were "colored" with clear Wink of Stella to give then some sparkle.

 I found the easiest way to decorate the inside was to trim three edges off three sides of the card front; leaving one edge to work with.

 I cut the outer edge of that untrimmed edge to get a straight edge as shown in the picture below.
 Then I applied a strip of adhesive to the one long edge of the inside Whisper White cardstock (meauring 4x5-14). Then adhered that to the pieces sticking off that one edge of card front. So, when you are looking at the picture below the piece on the right is the back side of the card front and the piece on the left is the back of the card interior. I then used my scissors to cut along the white card stock edges.

 So that you have a row of cut pieces making the design on the interior.

And of course, you have enough sunbursts and negative scraps on your table to make three more cards. Each will have a different color of Sunburst.

World of Congratulations

This card uses some map Designer Series Paper as a background behind the Daffodil Delight Sunburst. I sponged the center of the sunburst with some Tangerine Tango, Then I punched a circle of Pacific Point cardstock, ran that through the World Traveler embossing folder and lastly sponged that circle with Whisper White ink. Then it was putting all the elements together to make the card front. The expression comes from the Something to Say stamp set and inside I stamped the
"Now go change the world." stamp from that same set.
