Spots & Stripes Monday Challenge ~ Jayne Loughlin

Today I have made another card for the Challenge.

Things you’ll need: 1 x Spotty pattern paper (PP) , 1 x striped PP, Blank card, Circle border punch ,matching Starburst border punch,  (opt)Title of choice either peel offs, die cut or stickers etc…,Also Ink, 2 blossoms, Button & Scissors .

Instructions: First you need to take your Striped PP & cut around both circles with the template supplied in the pack (If you have lost the template it is a 6″ circle & 4″ circle) 

Next place the bigger circle in the Circle punch, Punch around using the printed pattern as a guide. The Bigger circle has its own ridge to follow too. If you have punched correctly the ends will meet perfectly. Do the same with the small circle but follow the smaller ridge and other sides printed pattern. I will be adding a video using this punch very soon

Ink the edges of the circle once it is Punched out.

Next cut a piece of Spotty paper the size of your card BUT cut it one inch wider. Glue the Patterned paper to the front of your card and make sure the left over paper is over the fold like shown.

Punch the overlapped piece using the border punch. I start in the middle and go out towards the sides. When the whole side is punched glue down I used Double sided tape (DST) Trim if nessersary. You may want to crease with a bone folder. Ink the edges again if liked.

Glue the biggest circle down first onto roughly the centre, Glue the smaller circle onto bigger ones centre, Add the blossoms and the button.

This point you can add a sentiment but seeing I don’t know what occaision I’m going to use this card I have left it off.
