Fall Cards in May: Sunburst Halloween

I wanted something a little different for the Halloween set.  I love the Frightful Sight DSP (sadly retired) and wanted to use as many of the patterns as possible.  Enter the sample and tutorial from Welcome to Stampin' Sue:

My Interpretation: Taking Sue's idea, cut a ton of DSP and went to work creating my own sunburst image.

Basic Tutorial:

  • Cut a piece of scrap cardstock to 3 1/2" x 3 3/4"
  • Cut strips of DSP to 1 1/2"x 3 3/4"
  • Cut those strip diagonally
  • Mark your scrap cardstock piece at the middle
  • Use the mark as a center for the pointed ends of the DSP
  • Adhere and trim off excess
  • Use excess to fill in the end spots of the sunburst
  • Cover the straggly ends with a ribbon, washi tape, or piece of cardstock (I chose cardstock)

Supplies:

  • Stamps: Wacky Wishes (retired)
  • Cardstock: Frightfull Sight DSP (retired)
