Create Your Own Sunshine: Scrapbook Adhesives Hop

Uncategorized

So for my project today, I have a card. Sometimes, you see a stamp, and you just fall in love….right? That’s no just me, I hope! Well, that’s what happened with this stamp from Stampendous. It’s called Create Sunshine. There’s just some thing…or things…that I absolutely love on this image, so it was one of the first that I worked on for our April catalog. 

Directions:
1. Stamp the image with Onyx Black VersaFine ink and color using the Tombow colors listed. Die cut the image using the smaller “P” Fitted Frame. Cut the corrugated turquoise cardstock with the larger “P” Fitted Frame. Use foam squares to pop the colored layer up off of the turquoise mat. 

2. Create the card base using Banana Pepper cardstock cut to 8″ x 5 1/2″ and fold in half. Sprinkle Chunky White Embossing Enamel around the edges of the card base and heat set from underneath. It’s good to work with only 2 sides at a time so that the enamel doesn’t spill before you heat set it. 

3. Cut cork sheet with Letter “B” and cut in half (on the short side). Affix to the card base with Zip Dry glue. Attach mat and top layer to card base with more foam squares.

Below you’ll see a photo of one of my daughter’s dress-up dresses. You may recognize it…. It’s Anna’s from Frozen Fever. I didn’t realize how nicely it coordinated with the dress until I had finished the card. She had been wearing it for days before I made the card, so I guess I was subconsciously influenced by it.
