World's Best Dad by Julia

Hello everyone! Welcome to a new month and a new collection release from Wild Whisper Designs. This month I will be creating projects using the Small Patterns Collection. This collection is available in a double pack too!

For my first project I decided to create a card for my dad for Father's Day. The Small Patterns paper worked perfectly with the World's Best Collection.

The World's Best Collection was released in May 2017 and will soon be retired from the Wild Whisper line-up. Don't miss this Last Chance to get your hands on this amazing collection!

For this card I started with a piece of 4.25" x 5.5" smooth white cardstock. I used my ink blending tool to apply a nice even layer of Broken China Distress Oxide over then entire surface.

I used the Tailored Tag Punch to cut out a bunch of shapes from both collections. I wasn't sure how many I would need and in the end had enough to make another card for my FIL.

I wanted to stamp my sentiment on 3 of the punch outs so I added a bit of gesso to pattern paper.

I used the coordinating stamp set for the World's Best Collection to stamp my sentiment.

Before adhering the pieces to my background I inked the edges with Ground Espresso Distress Oxide.

I used my Xyron Sticker Maker to adhere all all the pieces down except for the sentiment pieces. I used 3D foam to attach those.

Once I had all my pieces stuck down I trimmed off the excess, inked the edge with Ground Espresso Distress Oxide and adhere the background to my card base with 3D foam tape.
