Birthday Wishes


Well this card came about because I had previously used my new die as a stencil to sponge through and achieve a white outline for another challenge - there was quite a bit of Distress Oxide on the metal die so I laid it on a white water colour paper panel, lightly spritzed the die with water and used a brayer to transfer the ink... what a surprise - it worked really well. It was a little smoochy in one spot so I used a metallic paper triangle to cover this... as per the sketch at Fusion Card challenge this week.  Then I used the die to cut a flower, trimmed away the excess and inserted some white negatives to complete the flower and added a few leaves. To finish I stamped and embossed my sentiment in black. Thanks for visiting and enjoy your day
ps  as this is a Stamplorations die I am adding it to their Never-ending Anything Goes challenge
