Wishing You a Very Happy Birthday


Hello and hope you are enjoying the weekend... hot and humid here so inside for us in the air conditioning ...   BUT  do you have days where nothing seems to pan out as you might expect when the day started...  Well today it seemed like I was not going to get to my desk... son Ryan was working on the dining table rebuilding the cooling system in his computer, not much I can do there to help but then very late afternoon - light bulb moment and I was at my desk making a PINK card... and it came together so nicely.... just in time for the 
Double 'D' challenge - Shades of Pink


 

  • Inked up part of a large Penny Black stamp - Garden Gems, with Distress Oxides : kitsch flamingo, picked raspberry, bundled sage  ....   using the stamp positioner so I could add layers o colour.  Used Distress ink: picked raspberry and fired brick to add more depth, also used coloured pencils to add a bit more outline
  • Die cut the panel with a rounded corner stitched die (no name) 
  • Stamped the sentiment with Versafine black and clear embossed it... stamp from Kaisercraft: Birthday Wishes set.
  • Layered the panel on a dark pink and attached to a square pink card

I am also joining in the challenge at Seize the Birthday  #233... theme Dichromatic -  two colours pink and green

Thanks for stopping by my blog....   have a Wonderful weekend,   Cheers Robyn

  1. Oh what a beautiful card Robyn - love how you have layered up the image on further layers of pink, and that is such an elegant font for the sentiment.
    Stay safe
