Here’s a great way to use up that designer series paper!  This is one of our techniques from class today, and it’s really easy and quick.

Cut strips of designer paper 1-1/2″ wide by 4″ long.  Then cut them in half from the top right corner to the bottom left corner.  (Or the other way around.  It really doesn’t matter as long as they’re diagonal.)  Decide where you want your “sun” (I chose the lower right), then lay the strips over card stock or paper so the tips are in the center of the “sun.”  They can overlap a bit, since they’ll be covered up.  And you may want to start some of the strips off the paper.  When you’re finished, just trim so they’re flush with the card.  That’s it!

I used Sweater Weather designer series paper from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog.  The sentiment is one of the Really Good Greetings, die cut with the deco labels collection framelits.
