Yesterday I showed you how to make a Starburst Card.  Today I want to show you a variation on that same card!

We made these cards in my Dream Pop card workshop.  Basically, the starburst starts along the left edge of the card base, instead of in the center. 

 Here are the steps:
*Cut 1.5" x 5.5" strips of patterned paper (double sided is best).
*Take strip and turn it in your cutter so that it's diagonal.  Line up opposite corners along your cut line and CUT.  Now you have 2 diagonal strips



*Starting at the left side of the card, line up a straight edge along the fold of the card.

 *Fan out the rest of your pieces, making sure to cover the top and side of your card- no white spaces.  Also make sure to cover your line at the bottom. 

*Adhere your bottom piece, embellish and voila!  
**This card uses the embossed cardstock from Dream pop, Cricut Artiste shape, A True Thank You stamp set- colored in Cotton Candy, Lagoon & Creme Brule markers, black shimmer trim and bling buttons. 


Which starburst method do you like best???

CTMH- Everything ABC's Blog Hop- E is for Easter

If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start at the beginning at Amber's blog ~ Scrapper's Therapy  If you came from Shelly ~ Just One Piece then you're on the right track! E is for EASTER You may recall a few months ago, I posted a couple layouts from the baby album I am making for my niece.... well she's now 3 months old and I only finished through 4 months!  I have some work to do..... Today I created an Easter Layout using THIS layout as my inspiration.  The Chantilly paper pack is perfectly girly and springy!  I cut two strips of the green pattern, then sliced it up to make it look like grass.  Using Art Philosophy, I cut out a bunch of different eggs in 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and ...

CTMH- Washi Tape Card

Do you WASHI???   Washi Tape is one of the new and super trendy products being used.  I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon :)  CTMH now has a Slate Polka-Dot Washi Tape (and I HOPE there are lots more to come!!!)  I also have picked up a couple others at Michaels recently. This weeks Color My Heart Color Dare is JUNIPER.  I decided to use Juniper as the accent color for my card today. I used the black banner stamp set from Artiste Kudos , CTMH's Slate Washi Tape , CTMH's Silver Shimmer Trim and a black arrow washi tape.  The sentiment is from Artiste Birthday , stamped in Juniper, then popped on foam tape. A simple card like this, called for some dressing up of the inside too.  I stamped Happy Birthday from Perfect Fit Birthday and added some Slate Washi Tape to the bottom. Head over to Color My Heart to check out the other color dare entries :)
