SUPPLIES:

LIGHT COLORED CARD STOCK OR COLORED VELLUM

STAMPS

NIGHTLIGHTS

SMALL PLASTIC CUP

SCISSORS

PIGMENT INK

EP

EMBELLISHMENTS OF YOUR CHOICE

CUT THE CUP IN ½ ACROSS THE CENTER SO YOU HAVE 2 ½ CUPS THE SAME SIZE (SEE PICTURE)

NEXT HOOK OVER THE PLASTIC COVER OF THE NIGHTLITE TO BE SURE IT WILL FIT – CUT CUP IF NEEDED

NOW YOU CAN ROLL AND MARK ON A PIECE OF SCRAP PAPER TO MAKE A TEMPLATE, I MAKE MINE TO SIZE AND THEN DECIDE WHEN I CUT MY CS IF I WANT IT LARGER THAN THE CUP

NOW LAY YOUR TEMPLATE OVER THE CS/VELLUM YOU WANT TO USE AND CUT AROUND IT, YOU CAN USE SOME OF THOSE INFAMOUS DECORATIVE SCISSORS AT THIS POINT

STAMP AND EMBOSS YOUR DESIRED IMAGE

COLOR THE IMAGE – IF ON VELLUM YOU MAY WANT TO COLOR FROM THE BACK, ON CS YOU NEED TO USE VIBRANT COLORS OR THE COLORS WILL NOT SHOW VERY WELL IN A DARK ROOM

YOU CAN EMBELLISH AS DESIRED, ADD RIBBON OR FIBERS, GLITTERS OR TINY BEADS

YOU MAY ALSO WANT TO USE PUNCHED OUT ADORNMENTS OR STAMP AND CUT OUT IMAGES TO HAVE RAISED EFFECTS

THEN YOU ATTACH TO THE ½ CUP BY STRIPS OF DOUBLE STICK TAPE IN THE OUTSIDE EDGES

OR TAPE IN THE TOP OF THE CUP AND ATTACH TO THE NIGHTLITE
