Happy Sunday! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.
Yesterday was hectic as I participated in a local craft fair then had dinner
plans with friends. Today I have been enjoying some down time to get caught up
on cleaning and errands.
It is my birthday week so I wanted to share a birthday card
for someone else in my life that also has a birthday this week. When we were at
OnStage in Orlando we were challenged to show cards featuring #simplestamping.
For an avid crafter it is difficult to get back to the basics and take just a
SIP (stamps, ink, paper). By featuring two easy techniques I think I
accomplished the task today. I used stamps from the Picture Perfect Birthday stamp set:
Tips:
1.
Stamp sentiment in Memento ink first
2.
Stamp off with the rectangle image to get
lighter shades of Lovely Lipstick to highlight the words in the sentiment. I
also stamped off for the candle flames.
3.
Use a blender pen to pick up some ink from the
ink pad lid then add some Lovely Lipstick color to the Designer Series Paper
