Happy Birthday Friend

Love these two set stamps, it makes life so easy. I've used retired dsp, but you could easily make your own marble effect dsp using blending brushes, I've also embossed the dsp for more texture.

Materials required for this card are:

Card Stock: basic white, calypso coral

Designer Series Paper: *butterfly bijou

Dies: deckled rectangles (7), sending, scalloped contours (3)

Embossing Folders: timeworn type 3D

Ink: calypso coral

Stamp Sets: colour & contour, sending smiles

Accessories: bakers twine, brushed brass butterflies

 

* = no longer available, when using layering dies (1) is the smallest

Hope you liked today's card. If you would like more information on how to make it, please don't hesitate to contact me, I'd love to hear from you.

If you wish to buy any of the items used, go to contacting me at the top of the page for details on how to order.
