For today’s project, Stickles are the star. While often they often serve as an embellishment or accent, today we’re making them the main attraction.

Step 1: Apply Lime Green Stickles directly to a white adhesive foam sheet and spread using Simon Hurley Paste spatula. Rather than spreading with pressure as you might with a stencil, gently spread as you might cake frosting to get an even layer. Set aside to dry.

Step 2: Using the Tim Holtz Alterations by Sizzix Thinlits Die Set Vault Seasonal Sketch, estimate size of completed sentiment, and cut Masking Paper to approximately 1/2” longer in each direction. Place in the center of a Wendy Vecchi Perfect Cardstock White Panel.

Step 3: Apply Stickles, across the panel in lines approximately 1/4” in length. This does not need to be precise, the variation is what makes the design feel organic. The pattern primarily used Lime Green Stickles with some Yellow Stickles lines mixed in. Remove masking paper and set aside to dry.

Step 4: Die cut letters from dried foam sheet.

Step 5: Adhere letters to center of dried stickies panel. Adhere panel to Wendy Vecchi Perfect Cardstock White Card base.
