Here Comes the Sun - Technique Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the June Technique blog hop! This month we are featuring the Sunburst background thin cut from Close to my Heart and how fun (and easy) it is to get fabulous cards or more from this Thin Cut. If you are joining me from Darlys Recker welcome! If you are starting here with me....you are in the right spot to get started. 



Here are two cards I made using the Sunburst Thin Cut. I paired them with the Hillside Cottage paper pack. I also added the Leaf Layers Thin Cut to the right card. 

Here is one I created previously for a challenge. On this one I cute the border of the Sunburst out and then used it as a stencil with my Distress Oxide Inks to show a different way to use this Thin Cut. 



Products Used:

Paper:
- Hillside Cottage
- Black, Flamingo, Blue Belle, New England Ivy, and Canary

Ink:
- Be the Change Card: Intense Black
- Sending Sunshine : Flamingo
- Happy Birthday - Intense Black, Distress Ink Oxides: Mowed Lawn, Spiced Marmalade,    Mustard Seed, Picked Raspberry, Seedless Preserves and Peacock Feathers.

Thin Cuts:
- Z3945 Layered Leafs
- Z3942 Sunburst Background

Embellishments:
- Black and White Dots



I love creating with this Thin Cut, the possibilities are endless with it. I am trying to find a perfect layout to use it on. It is now time to hop on over and see what Lauren Moore created for us tonight. If you get lost along the way, just click here to start at the beginning.


Until next time, happy crafting!

Lovely cards! I too was drawn to the sentiment you used on the top card and the blending on the last card is so gorgeous!

These are all great cards. I especially like the blended one, it is so bold and bright.
