On the Diagonal

April Stamp Club Card

This month we made three cards at our stamp club workshop.  It was a very quick and easy card using the new photopolymer stamp set, Designer Typeset(see banner).  It works well with the latest trend of having strips of patterned paper on a diagonal.  One detail that is hard to see in the photo is that there are two scored diagonal lines underneath the "happy birthday".

Patterned paper strips are about 3/4" wide.  Tape them down to card stock, flip over and trip off over hanging edges.

 Supplies:

Stamps:  Designer Typeset, It's Your Birthday (retired)
Paper:  Sycamore Street DSP (SAB), Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry
Ink:  Rich Razzleberry, Basic Black
Accessories:  Scoring Tool, Scissors
