Featured Artist Post #1
I am in Christina Crawford's downline and she chose me to be her featured artist for next month! I have to create about 25 projects focusing on certain stamp sets. I chose all of mine from the Occasions Mini Catalog and they are; Well Scripted, Fox & Friends and Tote-ally Tess. I used other stamp sets with them but they will be in all of the projects. Here are my first two cards for this! To see them all CLICK HERE!
The owl card is made using the scallop square die cut with the big shot. Here is how I did it.
Fold a paper in half that is big enough to cover the scallop square leaving the folded part just below where it would get cut.(Notice the white gel pen lines to center my papers more easily. I have this on all my dies to show me the center.)
Turn your paper like shown centered in the die. This will give it the circle, octagon shape.
This is the shape you will get.
And it opens like a card!
This is how I cut the moon for the moon swing card. Just cut the first circle out of cardstock and then the second one around it.
More cards to come soon!
