Happiest Birthday Wishes

Good Morning

I can't believe how quickly January is going by.

Today's card features one of the new stencils from A Colorful Life Designs called

Scrawled Pen

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

• I took a piece of white cardstock and dry embossed it using an Alphabet folder.
• I laid that embossed panel onto my Make Art Station. I put the Scrawled Pen stencil over that and inked it up with some Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide ink.
• I removed the stencil and rubbed some Cracked Pistachio over the whole panel (although in the photo it looks blue) I placed the ink pad directly, laying it flat on the paper and rubbing over the raised areas.
• While that dried, I die cut the sentiment 3 times with some more white cardstock and glued them together.
• I glued the stenciled/embossed panel onto a piece of white cardstock, then onto some polka dot patterned paper, then onto and A2 sized card base.
• I glued the Happy Birthday sentiment into the middle of my card and added some silver gems around it to finish it off.

Here is the stencil I used:
