Hello there. Now that my crafty friend has received it, I am sharing the simple birthday card I made for her.
This adorable skunk from the C.C. Designs Skunks stamp set has been in my stash since this card was made. He was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, coloured with Copic Sketch markers C3/5/8/9, then die cut out with the matching die. The hat from C.C. Designs Bears stamp set was also stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, coloured with Copic Sketch markers B12/FB2/B28 then fussy cut out.
“Big” was die cut from Bristol and black paper using My Favorite Things (MFT) Big Birthday Wishes die. Since blue 💙 is my friend’s (and mine 😉) favourite colour, the Bristol letters were ombré ink blended with Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon and Tumbled Glass distress oxide inks. The sentiment from Itty Bitty Birthdays (retired MFT set) was heat embossed on black cardstock with white embossing powder. Assembled the card onto a white card base then embellished with Moonshine sequins from Simon Says Stamp to finish.
