Today, I wanted to try out one of my new stamps. "Sunshine" is one of Stampin' Up!'s new "Single Stamps". It's definitely a stamp to own. 

I thought the Summer Starfruit and Whisper White were a very fitting combination for the stamp.

I created the "sun" from different punches. Here's how I did it:

• Punch out a 1" circle. Fold it in half horizontally, then vertically. Now you have a circle with a folded cross. (I love those folded circles, they always keep everything straight. I penciled this one so it would be easier to see).

• Punch 8 pennants using the Petite Pennants Builder Punch and attach them to the circle making sure they line up with the horizontal and vertical lines on the circle. By doing this, all your "pennants" will be evenly spaced around the circle.

• Attach a 1 1/4" punched circle to cover your original white circle and embellish.

I had fun with this, and hope you do, too! 

Happy Stampin' and Punchin'…
