Happy Thursday! Today I am sharing an oldie that I have been waiting to share forever. This project features the Biggest Wish Stamp Set [155052] as well as the Sweet Symmetry Designer Series Paper [155605]. I adore this paper for how bold it is with both colour and pattern. Its from the Annual Catalogue (request one here) so if you don’t already have it – Why not?
Sweet Symmetry Designer Series Paper
Let the folk art designs and motifs in the Sweet Symmetry Designer Series Paper [155605] inspire your creativity. This high-quality printed paper includes traditional, symmetrical folk art images and florals in soft colours. It’s a great choice for cardmaking and scrapbooking. Each sheet is double-sided, giving you twice the crafting options.
Todays Project
This card was fun to make with all the different layers. I created the starburst sign by drawing a dot in the centre of a piece of copier paper. Using this dot as a reference point, draw multiple lines throughout this reference point and you have yourself a template. Then its all about choosing the papers and using the template to cut the shape. I layered this over other coordinating coloured card or Vellum [106584] to add additional layers.
You can imagine where all these layers overlap is a messy and you would be right. That is why you need something to cover it up. One of my favourite’s dies are the Stitched Star Dies [150653] and just work perfectly for this card. I die cut the shape in Basic White Card [159228]. The sentiment come from the Biggest Wish Stamp Set [155052], I fussy cut these out in order to make more of an impact.

Love this card, Martin, as I do all your projects. You have a great eye! I didn’t quite follow how you created the shapes for the background. I’d love it if you showed the technique on one of your upcoming videos!
