Sunburst Cards -Mojo Monday Sketch

Just finished these, another card design for my card class coming up soon.  For this one I used Mojo Monday sketch #276 and I just had to try these sunburst cards that I've been seeing everywhere lately.


These were not all that difficult to do, just a lot of fiddling with adhesive :-)

The sunbursts were made from rectangles 1.5" x 4" that are then cut in half corner to corner to make two triangles.  The strip of grey dot paper on the bottom is 1.5" x 4.5" and the strip of patterned paper on the right is 1" x 4.25".

To make the cards, start with your card base and draw a line in pencil 1.5" from the bottom of the card and 1" from the right.  This is so that it's easy for you to see the area that needs to be covered by the sunburst design.

Now you need to arrange your triangles until you get it set in a way that covers all the area that needs to be covered, then you can glue them down.  
HINT: Not all the points have to meet, it actually works best if some of them are slightly longer, especially the shorter pieces on the left of the card.

Once all the triangles are glued, trim the tips where they meet if they are too bulky, then trim all the pieces all the way around the card to make it even.  

Now adhere the finishing pieces on the bottom and right of the card.

The sentiments are all cut with the Aritste cartridge and they are all from the same stamp set from CTMH.  The paper is a retired special pack from CTMH from last spring.

Happy crafting!!
