Starburst/Sunburst Technique

Starburst/Sunburst Technique

I loved this technique for using up scraps when I saw it a year or so ago, but this is my first time using it. I watched a video by Dawn Olchefske, and that got me started. http://dostamping.typepad.com/dostamping_with_dawn/2013/07/starburst-sunburst-card-video-stampinup-dsp.html

I looked for and found lots of examples using the Starburst/Sunburst Technique. My next card will have the rays radiating from one corner; the next will be a full circle. I’m going to be using up some pp I just never seem to use but keep because it’s so pretty. The pp I used on this card was not my favorite; it was meant to just be a trial card, but I like it now that it’s all done.

Card:
4 ¼” x 5 ½”
SU cardstock, Very Vanilla and Old Olive
Unknown pp (attached with Scotch Wrinkle-free Glue Stick)
Unknown ribbon (attached with Judikins Trio Tape)
ATG Gun
Cuttlebug Swiss Dot Embossing Folder (used on the tan pp)

Only Stamp:
Michael Strong (from a wonderful set of sentiments, Cloisonne Words & Phrases)

Embellishment:
Unknown paper flowers inked with Antique Linen Distress Ink and layered
Metal button from my stash, attached with Glue Dots

Michael Strong sentiment
Versafine Olympia Green Ink Pad

Very pretty, I like this with the soft colors. I don't seem to have the patience to do this often, but yes, what a great use of pp.

This is very beautiful. I also don't have the patience for piecing like this. Thank you for sharing.

For your first time doing this technique you did an amazing job. And it is definately a great idea for using scraps. The button it too perfect as the flower center.
