Sending a Little Sunshine

Not every day can be a sunny day but the April Showers Bring collection from Catherine Pooler Designs reminds us we can "weather it together"! The collection will be releasing Wednesday, April 14th at 9am EST (early ordering for StampNation Members-Tuesday the 13th!)

Today I am featuring the delightfully over sized Sunburst Strips Cover Plate Die that is part of the Rainy Days Extra Bundle. This cover plate allows for so many different techniques...it is sized at 4 3/4" x 6" for lots of options in your card designs! I die cut an Ultra Smooth White Cardstock panel with the Sunburst Strips Cover Plate Die and with the Blending Brushes, covered each section with the following ink colors for a soft sun ray look: Pucker Up, Samba, Chiffon, and Hot Tub.

I then splattered the rays with a bit of water and some After Dark IzInk. Love the look of this combination! I adhered the rays to a card base, stamping a sentiment from the April Showers Stamp Set in Midnight. I finished the card with a strip of my all time favorite and most used patterned paper pack, Black Tie Gala.

With the Sunburst Strips Cover Plate being slightly larger than an A2 card size, it offers the ability to use the die on a slimline card too, and can be used both vertically and horizontally.

I have more cards to share featuring the April Showers Bundle of the April Showers Bring collection! Please check back for more inspiration!
