When I needed to make a birthday card for my daughter this cute image was a great starting point for inspiration. I really enjoyed the various ways to add depth, dimension and texture to my projects. Take a look!
1. Cut/score card base to a finished size of 4¼˝ x 5½˝ from Candy Heart cardstock.
2. Cut a white mat layer.
3. Use sponge dauber and instead of a usual circular sponging motion, just swipe the inks across. This gives a nice subtle interest to the background.
4. Stamp the image using Memento Tuxedo Black as I am going to color using Copic markers.
5. Once the image is colored, I applied tiny dots using Wedding Dress inker and the pointed Doodlestix.
6. Then, I applied some Shimmer Spritz Sparkle to the cake, candles and hair bow.
7. Die-cut a heart shape to your liking, apply some gold Creative Medium using a palette knife. You will want to apply your Creative Medium in a tapping motion to give it a nice texture.
