Life Is Tweet Sunburst Card

Have I told you how much I love the June stamp of the month, Life Is Tweet?  This sunburst card was fun to make!  First, I started with the sun print from the Footless paper pack and cut it to fit my card front.  Then, using my paper trimmer, I sliced it into pieces and inked the edges in Cocoa ink.  Before reattaching the pieces in order on the card front, I stamped the border in Creme Brulee onto each "ray."

The circle "medallion" is the Life Is Tweet stamp that I stamped in Creme Brulee and then stamped again in Cocoa, turning it just a bit so that the curlicues fit more or less in between each other.  A button covered the now "ugly" center since the words looked pretty funny.

I hope that you're having a day filled with sunshine!

  2. What a neat idea, to turn the curlicues and cover the center with a button. Looking forward to seeing you Sunday - it's time for me to get re-inspired!
