Rockin' Birthday

Welcome

Meet today's card.

A really fun and easy one to create.  These two stamp sets work so great together.

So here's what I did to create my card.

• I began with a piece of white cardstock cut for my front panel.  I positioned the Dot Circle Stencil from A Colorful Life Designs over my panel, then I used my blending brush with some Peacock Feathers and some Salty Ocean Distress Oxide inks to stencil.  I applied the ink with varying pressure to help give it a feeling of motion as if the record was spinning.  
• I took another piece of cardstock and stamped the record and the turntable arm from the Vinyl Greetings set in my Misti.  I clear heat embossed it to give it a shiny look like an album would have.  I stamped the 'Happy Birthday to You' from that same set onto the center of the record with some red ink.
• I fussy cut out the record and the arm and set that aside.
• I placed the stenciled piece into my Misti and stamped the sentiment from the For the Record set along the bottom. 
• I pop dotted the record onto the center of my card, then added the turntable arm.
• I glued it all onto a piece of blue cardstock, then onto a heavy white card base.

Here is the Dot Circle stencil I used.
