Penny Black: 2073J Baby Hammock Magic Colored Pencil Technique a.k.a. Gamsol Magic Stickles Hand doodling Cut 2 pieces of cardstock at 4.25" x 5.5" Score 2 lines, 1/2" each, on both short end of each piece. Lighter colors look better on the back piece. Cut a 3" circle out of the front of the top layer piece. Run both pieces thru the cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots folder. Stamp and decorate the design you wish and cut that out with a 3" circle. That will go on the inside piece of CS. I used 3D foam tape on mine. You can also just stamp on the back piece and color if you use white CS, but I wanted to use the swiss dot folder. Fold the 2 score lines as shown in this picture posted here and run a strip of glue tape along the outermost fold lines. Stick the 2 layers of CS together. All the words were computer generated and printed on white cardstock, then paper punched. Pink Prismacolor pencil was added to the outside edges of the punch outs over the top of line doodling then blended. This can be flattened for mailing.
