ECD Summer - In Summer the Song Sings Itself - Crackle Background

It's Wanda here on this wonderful Tuesday!!  There are so many fabulous new Quietfire stamps and dies that it was hard to choose which ones to use for today's project but I finally decided on Summer.  It even felt like Summer here in Southern Iowa this holiday weekend and we had sunshine for Memorial Day.

Here's how it was made -

1 - Cut manila cardstock 5" x 7".

2 - Take a piece of Tissue Wrap larger than the cardstock and glue to cardstock with Collage Medium.  Tear off excess along edges leaving any bits that don't tear evenly.

3 - Stamp Crackle Background randomly over Tissue Wrap with Sky Blue.

4 - Paint stamped Tissue Wrap panel with Dylusions paints and dry.

5 - Cut Summer from both black and white cardstock.  Attach words together with the white on top off-setting slightly with the black down and to the left.  Attach to center-bottom of panel.

6 - Stick Washi Tape above word.

7 - Die cut flowers from White Cardstock and trim stems to fit as shown.  Glue to panel.

8 - Stamp quote with Jet Black.

9 - Attach panel to black cardstock and distress edges.
