Happy birthday to you...

 Hi folks,

Well it's the boss's birthday coming up and this is what I have made her, I hope she likes it.

I just love this flower stamp from Gina K...so I decided to use it and stamped and white embossed it onto watercolour card, then I masked it off and stamped and white embossed the birthday text.  I then randomly added some watercolours, I wanted some subtle colouring but some areas I wanted it to be more vibrant.  I added some spalshes of colour too, not that you can see those splashes unless you zoom in. I samped the sentiment, die cut the numbers and the word "you" in rose gold foil card and layered those onto the card.  I added some dots, gems and sequins to finish.

Happy Birthday...

Morning folks,

It's time for the mid month challenge over on the Stamping Sensations Challenge Blog.  The theme remains the same... anything goes with the option of using the sketch below.  You can interpret it however you like as long as the main focus is stamping...after all we are a stamping challenge blog.  

We also have a fab prize of Oakwood bundle of stamps and/or dies.

For my card I stamped and white embossed the background, I added some watercolours to the background.  I then stamped and coloured the flower in a darker shade of pink watercolour ink, and stamped the leaves in black.  I stamped some splodges as normal and added some sequins and finished with the birthday message.

Something different...

Howdy folks, well I saw a tutorial over on Youtube on how to use Tim Holtz Lift Ink with alcohol inks and it looked just so amazing so I knew I had to give it a go....and you can make two cards at the same time...so simple just make your inked background using alcohol inks and then I stamped the image onto the background using the lift it ink and voila...

Here's the other...

I do like the inked background, it's so vibrant.  Will defo be making more of these!

Hope you likey!
