Sunburst thinlits Card

♥Wednesday Weekly Project♥

I did not think I would like this particular thinlit. When I saw the marbled paper in the Sale a bration catalog I though… hmm sky!! So this is what I came up with. I was not too happy about it and of course I criticize my work to no end. I think everyone is more critical of their own work than someone else is. Now that it is complete and I have sat on it a few days I am starting to like it more and more. I still want to change things about it but that is ok. That just means I will make several different styles of this card.

It is nice to have the right tools in my craft room to help create such beautiful work when I want to. Just sitting in the craft room makes me inspired. How about you? What inspires you to create your cards and all your other crafts? Posted comments will be entered into a drawing to win some Blog Candy!!  So Tell me all about what inspires you!!

Now check out my current card….

 

I created this card to show you. It has 3 layers. I used whisper white cardstock and sponged it with Daffodil Delight and So Saffron. I just took the stamp pads and dabbed them on the cardstock till I had the coverage I wanted. After that I put it through the big shot using the Sunburst Thinlits.  I used a dauber to sponge on the Tangerine Tango around the sun and down the outside of the rays. I put the card together in this fashion.

Base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 Whisper White folded in half.

Sale-A-Bration paper “Perfectly Artistic Designer Series Paper” (only available till Feb 15th 2015) 5 3/8 x 4 1/8 cut two of these.

Once you get the first one on trim the bottom rays of DSP out of the sunburst. Then place the second piece in with the opposite side showing.

Then place your Sun burst on top.

Here is an up close picture of the card with the Sky is the Limit Stamp Set. Which you could earn free from the Sale A Bration catalog.
