Birthday or Konfirmant card

by - 09:00

Today I'm bringing you a card that could be used for a birthday, konfirmasjon or any other type of celebration. I've used Martine from the Mathia collection with soft colors.


To create the background, I stamped 3 different stamps from Mathia - the wording from bakgrunntekster,  the backpack from ut på tur, and the flowers from Våren kommer. I used 4 different Distress Ink colors - Saltwater Taffy, Villainous Potion, Shaded Lilac, and Spun Sugar.


I randomly stamped the 3 different stamps in different colors and places, trying to balance out color and placement so it was interesting but not too busy or concentrated in one area. I then used a blender brush with Spun sugar to add some color. 

I stamped Martine on to watercolor paper and painted her with watercolor. When that was dry, I carefully fussy cut her out. I cut a small piece of heatproof acetate and stamped the sentiment on it in embossing ink. I then heat set gold embossing powder on it.


I attached Martine to the acetate and then added foam tape in very small pieces underneath the embossed sentiment and Martine so it appears like it's floating. It's a great way to give dimension and interest in a card that isn't often seen.

I attached that panel to my card base to complete it. In the end, you have a nice card with soft colors and dark contrast that is interesting and a bit unique.


Until next time...
