A Card a Day in May--Day #17

/

You might be noticing that I have used the Simply Fabulous stamp set alot this month and you would be right as I have an In Color Retreat taking place at the end of this month! And everything I create needs to serve two purposes right now!

The card I am sharing today uses a fun starburst technique with the Tea Boutique DSP 6x6 Stack. I love how SU gave us another stack of DSP in our 5 NEW In Colors! Crafting and coordination are a dream right now!

To create a starburst simply cut strips of DSP to 1 1/2 x 6 and then cut these in half at a diagonal. You then get a variety of strips to use for your starburst pattern. The possibilities are endless really as you can adjust the initial width and length of your DSP as desired.

I stamped the sentiment on Basic White using Parakeet Party and then die cut it with the Stylish Shapes Dies. I then stamped the sentiment again in Tahitian Tide so I could trim out just the word ‘fabulous’ and add it over top with a couple Glue Dots.

I stamped the two larger flowers from the stamp set in Sweet Sorbet, Starry Sky and Orchid Oasis. The greenery is in Parakeet Party.

I added a few Matte Decorative Dots and voila!
