You Are My Sunshine

The sun brightens our days and warms our hearts.​

Hi everyone!  Welcome.  Summer is coming and while we can't be outside just yet, we can warm our faces in the sun for just a little.  This is the feeling I get from this cute little image:  You Are My Sunshine, from StarStampz.  This little girl is playing out in the sun, and even though I can't be out there, I surely can image it.

Don't forget that the new challenge also begins on June 10th.  Start thinking of what you want to make for your chance to enter and win!

This will be a very easy card to prepare build.  I have linked all the SVG files above that you will need to create this card.  For the square image you will use the yellow striped paper and the for the label use the digital paper listed above (print and cut feature). For the mounting you will use the coral colored cardstock.

With all of the files cut out and ready to go, all that needs to be done is constructing them.  Using liquid glue adhere the yellow striped square to the card base. 

Layer the yellow polka-dot label to the square using foam tape.  Make sure they are as centered as possible. 

Mount the image, using liquid glue to the coral square cut out.  It should have about 1/4 of an inch all the way around.  This will act as a frame for your image. 

Mount the image to the label using double sided foam tape.  Again make sure it is as centered as possible.  

In order to add the sentiment you will use double sided foam tape in a single layer at the top and a double layer at the bottom.  This will allow the image to be even, as the bottom half will be on the label and the upper half on the image.  

For the cloud image, use  double sided foam tape on the upper portion.  The smaller portions will be adhered using liquid glue.  

C'est Fini!

That's it.  Because I maee this image into a scene card, the image itself it has become a detail element itself.
