Many Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy Birthday! Is it that time of the month to make a batch of birthday cards? Most of us do prepare and love to make birthday cards. Are you one of them? If you are, stick around to check my new project.
In today’s project, I used several products from Maker Forte and one of the products I used is an Easter product but was able to find ways to use it. Sometimes I am in shock to discover some shapes and sizes that make sense and I am always surprised to discover them.
Let’s begin!
For my project today, I started with the Slimline Perfect Fold, Scored Slimline Card Base. This is a heavy card base and already scored, all you have to do is fold it in the middle and score it using Maker Tool Kit – To The Point – Teflon Bone Folder, Scorer, and Creaser. An amazing tool to use!!! Next, I cut a piece of Solid Core Matcha Cardstock that measures 3.25 x 8.25 inches as my card panel. Once I resize the cardstock, I stamped it with The Hedgehog Hollow Splatter Rubber Stamp using Color Hive Frappe Ink to have a light background.
Using the Egg Trio Stencil, I decided to make it a balloon. Who would have thought that I can use it this way? Lol! Well, it looks like a balloon so I started blending colors on each balloon that I made and used several different colors for variation. I used Color Hives Inkpad such as Coral Keys, Tartan Teal, Bubble Tea, Hyde Park, and Frappe. I also used Distress Oxide Seedless Preserves. After that, I used Arteza Glitter Gel Pen and drew around the egg and emphasized the balloon a little and added the bottom part and drew the string.
To add more dimension, I added some Kaleidoscope Interference Neptune and then sprayed it with some water and kaleidoscope concoction. Many happy, happy, happy, happy birthday sentiment is from the Many Happy Returns Stamp Set. To finish it off, I adhered to the slimline card base and added some Crown Jewel Gems Tartan Teal.
I’m glad you stop by and hope to see you again next time. To get all the amazing products I used on my project, please visit Maker Forte Shop.
Peace!
