Focus on Stickers by Jessica Witty

Happy Birthday Card by Jessica Witty

Jessica Notes: Here's a fun technique to get more use out of your stickers. For this project, I used the negative of the Little Black Dress stickers left over from the flourishes on that sheet to get the flourish images on my card. I just cut the negative out, deadened most of the stickiness on the back with an anti-static powder bag, then stuck the negative onto the patterened paper panel. Then I sprayed the negative opening with Tattered Angels mists and removed the masks, leaving the flourish images behind.

Supplies:

Picadilly Prairie Grass Paper by Basic Grey
Picadilly Breadbox Paper by Basic Grey
Little Black Dress Element Stickers by Basic Grey
Portrait Border Stickers by Crate Paper
Jingle Bells (Limited Edition Winter 10) Glimmer Mist 2oz. by Tattered Angels
Trunk Bay (Limited Edition Spring 2011 Color) Glimmer Mist 2oz. by Tattered Angels
