Happy Little Stampers Birthday Card



Hello everyone,

.

I used two of the new sets

Mix Mash

and
Everyday Sentiments

on my card today.

I desided to step out of my CAS comfort zone and do a watercolour background with a bokeh effect using the circle stamps in the first set




After creating the background I die cut it with a stitched rectangle die, matted it onto white card and then onto the pink base card. The sentiment was kept simple so it would pop against all the colour, and I finished it off with 3 simple sequins.

I'd like to play along with





Thanks for stopping by


Hugs

A beautiful look with the warm cheery shades of color as a background to the misty white bokeh circles. The watercolor is so intense & love the texture achieved with the paper too. I am really loving the sentiments & fonts on the new sets. They are so extremely versatile and stamp out so crisply. Good job with the card. TFS
