JAI #205: JUST ADD A SUNBURST

The Just Add Ink challenge this week, courtesy of Tina, is to add a SUNBURST to our papercraft project.  I had to think long and hard about this one!!  I ended up making a rustic (naïve?) sun using twine and ribbon.  I've deliberately cut the ribbon a little "untidily" for this look, which was rather liberating, given that normally I need everything to be "just so"!!




 
Stamps: Perfect Pennants
Card: Naturals White, Summer Starfruit, Chocolate Chip
DSP: Soho Subway Designer Series Paper
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Summer Starfruit and Crumb Cake stampin' pads
Other: Scallops embossing folder, Early Espresso stitched grosgrain ribbon, Banners Framelits, Summer Starfruit 1 1/4" Striped grosgrain ribbon, Summer Starfruit Baker's Twine from Sweet Sorbet Accessories Pack, Neutrals button, Hung Up cute clip, sponge dauber, 1 3/4" Circle punch, Tombow liquid glue, sticky strip
 
 
 
Be sure to check out the rest of the creations from the Just Add Ink Design Team.  We hope you'll play along with us this week!

    What a great idea to use ribbon and twine to create your sunburst Chris. I love all the texture you packed on to just one card. Fabulous ♥

    I like your rustic sun and so glad you didn't make the ends of the sunbeams 'just perfect'. Have a lovely weekend.

    What a great card, Christine!! So inventive and fun, with your clever sun made of twine, and all the lovely texture. I really, really love that sun, and the addition of the cute little arrow clip too!
