Sunshine Slimline Card

The theme for this week’s design team makes is "positive affirmations". There are so many wonderful stamps in the Visible Image catalogue to choose from which fit this brief. I finally settled on the “Rise and shine” set paired with one of the new mini stencils together with one of the positive affirmation sentiments from the “Look forward with hope” set. I decided to make a slim line card.

Tutorial

I chose a piece of bright inky mop up card from my distress ink stash and cut it down for a slim line card.

I placed the Sunshine stencil near the top and using a mix of these 2 distress inks blended them through the stencil.

I then stamped the large Rise and shine sun into the centre using Versafine Clair nocturne ink and clear embossed. I made a border all around the edges of the card using the "rays" of the stencil and carved pumpkin distress ink.

I randomly stamped the clouds using Morning mist Versafine and stamped the sentiment at the bottom of the card in the same way as the sun stamp.

For some finishing touches I added some white gel and glitter pen details to the sun. Then I matted onto cerise card finally onto a white slim line card blank.

This type of card is perfect to send to someone just to say that you are thinking of them. You don't need an occasion or a reason. When they receive it you can be sure you will have put a smile on their face.
