Life Is A Picnic SugarCut

Sunshine Sentiments Stamp Set

On my stop of this hop you’ll find a colorful picnic scene die cut from awesome Life Is A Picnic Set! Instead of digging in my stash of colorful paper, I quickly die cut all the elements from Neenah Solar White cardstock and then add color with copic markers, making a super simple blending.

Key Ingredients:

• Life Is A Picnic SugarCut
• Sunshine SugarCut
• Sunshine Sentiments Stamp Set
• Backyard BBQ SugarCut
• Sunburst Stencil (Psss… this stencil is a little peek on Day 3 of the Summer Release.)

Step By Step Instructions:

• Die cut all the elements you need, using Life Is A Picnic SugarCut and Backyard BBQ SugarCut. I used on this project Sizzix Big Shot Die Cutting machine.
• Color the die cuts with copic markers. I used:
  • basket E40-E42-E43-E44
  • cheese Y11-Y21-Y35
  • baguette YR30-YR20-YR21-YR23
  • wine glasses, watermelon and apples R32-R24-R29-R46
  • wine bottle G20-G43
  • watermelon peel and apple leaves YG03
  • watermelon seeds 100
• Die cut a gingham tablecloth, using Life Is A Picnic SugarCut and MFT Tiny Check pattern paper.
• Die cut from a copper metallic paper the Sunshine Word and a couple of details from Life Is A Picnic SugarCut.
• Die cut another Sunshine Word from a plain white cardstock. Stack two layers together.
• Glue all the picnic elements together with Distress Collage Medium Matte.
• Trim and score an extended A2 size card base (5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″) from Neenah Solar White paper.
• Mask the bottom part of the card front with a masking paper, tape well the Sunburst Stencil with a removable tape and ink the Sun rays with Squeezed Lemonade Distress, Mustard Seeds Distress and Fossilized Amber Distress inks.
• Lift up the stencil and add more color all across with a lighter hand.
• Flick some tiny droplets of a clear shimmer spray over the rays. Lift up the masking paper.
• Heat emboss in white onto black the sentiment from Sunshine Sentiments Stamp Set.
• Arrange and glue in place all the elements on the card front, by popping some of them on a foam tape for a fun dimensional look.
• Finish with some highlights, added with a white gel pen.
