I have four cards to share today!
Card 1~ Make a Wish!
For my first card, I used
I started withk kraft and white card stock. I stamped the background onto kraft card stock using white pigment ink. I let it dry. I die cut the balloons and ink blended with pastel colors. I assembled the balloon bouquet.
I arranged all of the elements onto the card. I added a sentiment from the Hooray, It’s Your Birthday Stamps Set. I finished the card with with a few clear sequins.
TIPS
- I love stamping onto kraft with white pigment ink and just letting it dry. No embossing needed. The way the white ink blends into the kraft creates a lovely tone to keep a background in the background, yet noticeable.
-I diecut all of the balloon pieces and inkblended the balloons as I went to determine the perfect placement for the balloon bouquet.

TIPS
- Use various inking techniques to give your background stamps more versatility. Here, I used an embossed resist
-Once you finish inking with an emboss resist technique, make sure to buff away ink standing on the white ink.
-When using a fun background, sometimes that is all you need along with a sentiment to finish the card.

TIPS
- Mix inks onto the background stamp to create variety of colors when stamping.

- When diecutting a shape, you can layer the shape over the same patter as the pattern below to create a continuous layered effect.
