  • Mama elephant- birthday script creative cuts
  • Stampin up!- endless birthday wishes
  • Distress embossing ink pad

  • Indigo blu- lucious pigment powders 'purple, raspberry,coral & green'
  • Archival 'watering can' ink pad
  • White, black, grey and watercolour cardstock
  • 4x6" white card blank
 
I stamped and embossed the floral background onto some watercolour cardstock. I used the pigment powders and water to create the pearl wash of colour, making sure to wipe any colour off the embossed lines. Once dry, I trimmed the piece to fit the front of my card blank. I cut a thin strip of white card and stamped the 'wishes' sentiment. I glued this to a wider piece of grey card. I die cut the word 'birthday' from both white and black card. I layered the white onto the black, off set slightly to create a shadow. I glued this into position above the 'wishes' to complete my sentiment. I added this to the card flat, however, you could use foam for dimension.

I mat and layered a patterned paper and a coordinating solid,from the paper pad. I wrapped string around twice at an angle and tied in a bow. I glued this onto my card blank and moved on to making my topper. I cut a piece of card, stamped my image and coloured it using copics. I chose colours to coordinate with the floral paper and added a sentiment into the tag to make it part of the image. I matted this panel onto some more paper, and positioned it on my card  tucked slightly underneath the twine.
