Geometric Background Birthday Card

Today I have a simple card using the October Stamp of the Month - Geometric Background. I used Copics in a rainbow type order and I paired it with Sentimental Mash Up for an awesome Birthday card for a male or female. I created a candle with a scrap of the background and using a "candle flame" shape gem, my card is complete.

The colors are really vibrant in real life - I am loving this card! What do you think!

I hope you are inspired!

Rainbow Birthday

 

Hello friend, Esther here today with a bright and cheery rainbow birthday card. I started by painting a background with distress oxides on Canson Mix Media paper. (These are the colors in order from top to bottom: Kitsch Flamingo, Festive Berries, Wild Honey(mixed with Festive Berries), Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron (mixed with Salty Ocean), Salty Ocean, Blueprint Sketch, Wilted Violet.) 

Next I spot stamped the  Geometric Background in Yeti Ink (Lawn Fawn) and embossed it with white embossing powder. I added some white paint splatters to fill in the empty spaces.

The Chinese lanterns are from the Shine Your Light stamp set, and are stamped in Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink  and painted with distress oxides. After they were dry, I inked them up with Versamark Watermark Ink and embossed them with Clear Ultra Thick Embossing Powder to give them some shimmer. 

Last of all I stamped the sentiment from Bold Birthdays  in  Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink  and added some sequins.

Merry Christmas

So, this year for my Christmas card creating I have been a little stuck on the color green. It's no surprise that I'm using green again to create this fun card featuring the new Stamp of the Month Geometric Background. It's free with a $60 order, just make sure to add it to your cart.

I stamped the background with white pigment ink on white cardstock and embossed with white embossing powder. I inked up the embossed piece with bundled sage distress oxide ink, wiped off the excess from the embossed parts and heat set once more to make it shiny again. I die cut the panel and spritzed it with a sparkle shimmer craft spray. I added a border of dark green cardstock and attached to a white card base. 

Next, I stamped the apron from Sweet Treats on pattern paper and the towel portion on white cardstock and fussy cut them out. Then, I die cut the apron from white and glued all the pieces to form the apron. I stamped the ornament from Warm Winter Friends on white, colored with glitter gel pens and hand trimmed out. The sentiment is from the same set. 

I assembled the card as seen adding some white gems and popping the sentiment and ornament up with foam tape. 

 

 

I hope you enjoyed today's card and thanks so much for stopping by!
