Play on Circles

It's been quite a while!  Very busy summer here!  Hope everyone is having a good one and enjoying this cooler weather here in Oklahoma for a few days!

I had a couple of pieces of paper and sheets of velvet paper that I wanted to use for a card so here's what I came up with.

Here's the pieces you will need to cut to make 2 cards.  The picture below are the supplies for one card.

  • Cut 3 1/2 inch circles out of the yellow velvet paper and the striped paper.  
  • Cut a 3/4 X 12 inch strip of the red velvet paper.  Then cut into 2 strips that are 3/4 X 5 1/4 inches. 
  • Score and cut a sheet of 8 1/2 X 11 inch solid blue card stock in half.  I cut this one long way with the scored line at 5 1/2 inches.  
  • Cut 4 pieces of white card stock 4 X 5 1/4 inches. 
  • Next, cut the striped circle in half (1 3/4 inches) and then each piece in half again to make 4 pie pieces.  Do the same with the yellow circle.  
  •  Place the 3 piece pieces on one piece of the white card stock with a small gap between the left yellow piece and the blue piece.  
  • Place the red strip in the center of the card over the pie pieces to form the center stripe.
  • Stamp a sentiment in the empty pie piece spot to complete the front.  Glue the front piece onto the blue card base.
  • Stamp a sentiment on the other piece of white card stock and place on the inside of the card.  
  • That's it!  
This is a great way to use up some scraps to make a few cards and was pretty quick and easy to do!  

I also added another picture for you of another design using the circle!  Check it out below!
