Birthday Card with The Stamping Village

Masculine cards are the hardest.  I kept this one simple and the "Happy Birthday" stamp set from The Stamping Village was perfect.

I stamped the balloons in Copic friendly ink and set about coloring each with a range of Blues.  Then I covered each with a layer of Nuvo Crystal Drops in Morning Dew.


Mother's Day Card with Altenew

Hello and thank you for visiting!

For this Mother's Day card, I started by creating a rainbow background using Aloha Watercolors.  Then heat embossed the flower from "Best Mom" by Altenew with Versafine and clear embossing powder.  The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp "Mom's Meadow" and was also heat embossed.
