Instructions
1. On piece of White cardstock, stamp lamp with Black ink and allow to dry.
2. Cut another piece of white cardstock large enough to make desired size card (the sample is 5 x 6 ½”).
3. Color stand and pole of stamped image with colored pencils.
4. Trim down to desired rectangle size.
5. Insert small stud at top edge of stamped lamp. To insert stud, lay card on piece of fun foam and pierce card with stud where desired and secure on the back with Hand Tool.
6. Cut fringe to desired size to fit bottom of lampshade.
7. Trim off most of the ribbon on the beaded fringe and glue beaded fringe to the bottom edge of the white lampshade with Fabri-Tac and allow to dry completely.
8. Cut pieces of double sided foam tape and place small pieces in center of white stamped shade just above where you had glued on the fringe – do not put tape on outside edges, as you do not want these raised.
9. On piece of Light Yellow cardstock, stamp lamp shade with Black ink and allow to dry.
10. Cut the yellow lampshade close to outside edges.
11. Apply Fabri-tac glue to outside edges of the white shade and attach yellow shade so that it bows in the middle over the foam tape and lies flush against the outside edges – hold in place until dry.
12. Cut polka dot paper in desired amount of layers and attach these three layers to the front of the card with double-stick tape, leaving a wide border on the right side for the loose beaded decoration.
13. Adhere the decorated lamp to the polka dot layers with double-stick tape.
14. With about 2” of extra fringe, cut off the beads and place in a tray.
15. On right edge of the white card, apply a ¼” strip of Tacky Tape and apply the loose beads
