Bright Lights Blog Hop - Scrap 'n Stamp Designer Challenge

Hello & welcome! You should have arrived here from Tara's post on the Scrap 'n Stamp blog.
Be sure to visit each blog on the hop and leave a comment for a chance to win a Lawn Fawn die from this months new release. Let's get hoppin'.

This month we were given the challenge of using the Lawn Fawn String of Lights die set.

- Here is my finished card -

I started with a piece of white cardstock that was 4 7/8" x 4 7/8". I took the 'string' part of the die set and placed it across the cardstock like in the photo below. I put it through my Big Shot and then removed the 'string' part. This left me with

I cut out the top layer of my balloon in red glitter paper, the bottom layer of the balloon in white cardstock, the string and lightbulb base in gold glitter paper.

I inserted the gold glitter string between the two pieces of the cardstock from step one and adhered with some doubled sided tape. I then flipped it back over and stamped my sentiment.

I then adhered my lightbulbs down along the gold string. 

Next I adhered my white cardstock to a piece of 5 1/8" x 5 1/8" black cardstock.

I added some Tarnished Brass Distress Crayon to the edge and Barn Door Distress Crayon around the lightbulb with a detailer water brush.
