Mix Media Birthday Card


I was playing with one of my favourite products tonight, PanPastels.  I made this birthday card for my dear friend Jenny for her birthday.  Hope she likes my card. 

I coloured my background with three different colours of PanPastels  and then created more layers with three different background stamps over top of the areas I coloured.  The next step was to use two different stencils to create texture on the card.  I used this process in different areas of the card.  After my background was complete  add a few torn  strips of the Washi tape from the Tim Holtz collection and a ribbon.  Can you see all the products that I have used on the card?  Here is a close up.



The birthday celebration stamp is by Verses Rubber Stamps.  I have had the stamp in my collection for a very long time. The butterfly is a Cuttlebug die and embossing folder.  After I embossed the butterfly I coloured it with Distress Inks and edge it with a Gold Leaf pen by Krylon.  I only had a strip of white pearls for the spine of the butterfly so I coloured the pearls with the same Distress Ink I used for butterfly.  

Thank you for looking.  Now back to my craft room to clean up.
