Hi Everyone!
I have a birthday card to share today, using the Faith, Hope and Love Set. Birthday? I know what you are thinking; Faith, Hope and Love is not a birthday set! Well, it is when you turn the cute heart into a balloon! Need this set to make birthday cards? Use code TJ10LeeAnn and you will save 10% on your entire order!
I just purchased some of the Distress Oxide inks; I know, I am a bit late to the party, but I was
pretty happy with the plan ol' distress inks! I heat embossed the hearts 3 times and then painted them with distress oxides. I used Spiced Marmalade, Peacock Feathers and Twisted Citron. I then masked the hearts off and sponged the remainder of the card with the Twisted Citron and Peacock Feathers. To add texture, I placed a stencil around the edges of the card and dabbed with a damp cloth to lift oxidize the color. Black splatter adds interest. Lastly, balloon strings were drawn in with a Micron pen.
The sentiment, Donuts Happy Birthday, was heat embossed on a black panel. The image panel was die cut out with a stitched rectangle die and the card was assembled.
That's it for me; I hope I have inspired you to look at your stamps differently, or at least to get inky today!
