Pas à pas

1. 

   Prepare a chunky board base by layering card together to achieve the desired thickness. Edge the board with black ink to cover any grey edges and create a neat finish.

2. 

   Apply glue to the kraft board using a brush, spreading it thinly and evenly to avoid creating ripples in the card when you adhere it.

3. 

   Adhere a piece of dark green textured card over the glued board, pressing down firmly to ensure it is securely attached.

4. 

   Run your finger down each edge of the black card to create a crease line showing where the card underneath sits. This will help you see where to trim.

5. 

   Stamp sentiment images such as 'have a nice day', 'smile', 'OMG', or 'hello' onto the bright pink paper using black ink. Use the stamp positioning tool to ensure accurate placement of each sentiment.

6. 

   Carefully hand-cut around each stamped image on the pink card, leaving a slight pink border around each design. Don't worry about achieving perfect accuracy - a relaxed, hand-cut look works well for this project.

   Arrange the colourful stamped ticket pieces onto the dark grey background card. Position them in a scattered, overlapping arrangement, allowing some pieces to extend beyond the edges of the card for a playful, dynamic effect.

• You can use scraps of patterned paper and card from your stash rather than buying new materials.
• Don't worry if the stamped pieces fall off the edge—it gives a nice cartoon-style effect.
• You could adapt this design as a notebook cover or blank notepad by adding paper and a pen instead of a calendar.
