Have a perfect birthday

Hello stamping friend! What is new in your neck of the woods! Whatever it is I hope you are doing well!

Today’s card was inspired by a few challenges just because I loved all of them…

Last but not the least my colour inspiration came from the latest ColourINKspiration challenge…

I stamped the floral image with StazOn Ink on to Shimmery White cardstock, before watercolouring with a Fine Tip Water Painter (I used Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight and Mint Macaron ink) before die cutting with the coordinating die. I also die cut a few extra pieces from paper scraps, some with watercolour and some already embossed, to add extra layers and texture. The piece of DSP (measuring 9.5 cm x 14.5 cm) was distressed around the edges and adhered flat to the card front. In the top right corner I stapled a piece of frayed Gold Fine Art Ribbon. The greeting (from the same bundle) was stamped (and clear embossed) with Grey Granite ink.

Tip! I only added adhesive to the middle of the DSP piece, leaving the outer edges free to lift away from the card front.

A reminder to stop by my Catalogues & Promotions page – there is soooo much happening at the moment!

Thank you for sticking with me to the end! I really appreciate it!

Until next time…
