I wanted to make a birthday card and knew I could print my own sentiment, as I don't have snarky products. Here's what I came up with.
The candles from Hero Arts May card kit were lined up kinda wonky in my MISTI and repeatedly stamped in Versafine Clair Nocturne. Then I messily watercolored with Distress Oxides candied apple, spiced marmalade, fossilized amber, lucky clover and prize ribbon. I used a Quickie Glue Pen and gold foil for the flames. I tied on white crochet thread and attached the panel to a black mat. I found a fun font and printed out the sentiment to go above and below my raised panel of candles. The embellishments are a yellow Hero Arts Translucent Enamel Dot and 2 black Gina K hearts. All the details and lots of inspiration from our guest designer and my teammates can be found on the blog.
