For the third day of the reveals, we are showcasing the Puppy Playtime stamp set + coordinating dies.
To begin, I stamped my images on some Neenah solar white card stock and used my Spectrum Noir Classique markers to color the images in. I die-cut the images using the coordinating die. The balloon image is from the Fabulous Frenchies stamp set.
I inked up my card panel with some Mustard Seed and Worn Lipstick distress oxide inks. I then used the Balloon stencil to add more depth and dimension to the background. I used my distress sprayer and sprayed some water onto the card to get the oxidation effect and used paper towel to make it dry. I die-cut this piece using the scallop die from the Frames & Flags die set.
I adhered this piece on some light blue card stock and added them to a white side fold card base. I foam-mounted the images onto the card and added glossy accents to the balloon.
Lastly, I die-cut the “wishes” using a die from my stash and adhered this with liquid adhesive. I stamped the sentiment using Versafine Onyx black ink. Here’s my birthday card:
I don’t know about you, but a puppy with a balloon wearing a party hat is a good birthday party celebration in my book!! Here’s a closer look:
