Sunny Days by Elaine King

Cut a large triangle from the camera sheet. To do this measure down 5” from the top and cut this strip off. Measure the centre point and make a small mark. Draw a line. Cut from the top corner to the centre point and cut along the line to create the triangle. Keep the cut off pieces for later. Distress the edges of the large piece leaving the top edge intact. 

Use a large Distress ink in Salvaged Patina ink to create the splatters. To do this smoosh the ink pad down on a piece of plastic packaging and spray with water to create puddles. Use a paint brush to pick up the paint and splatter random on to the point of the triangle and around the two sides of where the 2 photos (measuring approx 2.75” x 3.5”) will be. Leave to dry- meanwhile fussy cut 5 of the cameras from the offset triangles. Mount two photos on the black card in the kit. Keep the rest for another LO. 

Mount the top photo on foam pads or tape and slightly overlap it over the bottom one which should be placed flat onto the base. 

Use a Distress Ink in Black Soot ink pad to stamp 3 randomly placed frames, avoiding the bottom left of the left hand photos. 

Use the reverse side of the camera paper to create a tag. Distress the edges and add twine or string from your stash. Cut a second tag from the floral “Our Garden’ sheet measuring the same as the previous tag and again distress the edges and add twine. Stick them to the bottom left of the left hand photo raising one up on foam pads or tape. 

To embellish them, punch or use a die to create 2 x 2” hearts and 1 x 1” heart. Overlap one large and one small heart on the bottom tag. Add a fussy cut camera and a stick on dot from the kit. 

Add 3 more of the 1” hearts to the stamped frames and three fussy cut cameras too with extra embellies in the kit. Add one final larger heart to the top right of the photo with another camera. 

Finish with a title using alphas from the kit.
