We have the most amazing son-in-law. We couldn't have asked for a more loving giving husband and father. He is a great card giver so the fact that his MIL makes cards is a plus. He often texts to see if I have a card for this or that.
He has been planning a special surprise birthday trip for our daughter.
He texted this picture which he found online and asked if I could make something like it. I said, "of course I can"!
First I had to track down the Around the World stamp set hidden in retired stamp sets, it has just been waiting for the perfect occasion! So while the stamp set is retired it went perfectly with the current Pick a Pattern Designer Series Paper.
I cut out the Happy Birthday in Basic Black Paper using the Happy Birthday Thilits die, multipurpose adhesive sheets and the Big Shot. Do you ever wish the items you cut out would stick automatically? Especially really thin items.
When using the Big Shot I love to use the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets. They are so easy to use and your item will stick perfectly to your paper crafting project.
- Just cut the Multipurpose Adhesive Sheet the size you want for your project
- Then peel off one of the protective layers and apply it to a piece of cardstock that is cut the same size
- Then run it through your Big Shot
- Peel the back side off and stick to your project
