Snappy Birthday Stamp & Die Bundle - Fun Stampers Journey

This card just makes me smile .... I love how the colors of the PanPastels blended into the background using our new Dauber Dowel (comes in both large and small sizes).   It makes the card bright and cheerful. 

Thread Tip:   When wrapping thread around a card piece (like I did above), put White Liner Tape on the back around the edges.   That way you can secure the thread as you wrap.   I did the complete surface without cutting until the end.   I wrapped from side to side for the complete piece, then top to bottom.  Went quickly and allowed me to space the thread (not perfect, but I am pleased with the result). 

PanPastel Tips:   Gently place the Dauber Dowel with pad on the PanPastel.   Then lightly pick up the color.  You won't need a lot.  I worked in circular motions as I worked in the color.   When you are putting the PanPastel on your card stock, you do want to apply brush so that it blends into the card stock and won't come off on your hand when handled.   If you have quite a bit of dust/residue on the card, take a paper towel and rub in circular motions in the same direction as your pattern.   It will pick up the excess. 
   
        I always rub my finger across the finished design to be sure there is no residue that comes off on my finger.   In the case of a stencil design, there  will be residue.  Tap off what you can.   If not a scrapbook piece (or item that will be saved for years and years), just spray with an aerosol hairspray lightly to lock in the color.   Allow to dry before adding anything else to the card.    For scrapbook pieces - long term pieces, there are good products at your art store that can be used to seal the color in and also protect the design.    The choice is yours is whether you want/need to treat the item or not with a sealant.    Honestly, I just make sure my PanPastels are well rubbed in.   I have sealed only a couple of pieces and those had been created using a stencil and the PanPastels.
