So, it's no secret that I like bright and colorful cards, and when it comes to birthday cards, I love to use rainbow colors to make them extra festive. So this is what I did on today's card, and I really love how it turned out. And stay tuned for more packed with colors cards during the next couple of weeks!


I started off by totally covering a 5,5 x 4,25 inches Strathmore bristol smooth panel with salvaged patina oxide ink. Next I used the Layered Balloons Stencils along with more oxide inks to make my background super festive. In rainbow order, I used: picked raspberry, spiced marmalade, mustard seed, mowed lawn, peacock feathers and wilted violet. And for the balloons tails, I used white pigment ink.

Next I added texture: I mixed some copic opaque white ink with water and used a small brush to make splatters all over my panel, and then did the same with black soot oxide ink to bring more contrast.


I set my panel aside to dry, stamped my images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, cut them all using the matching dies, and colored everything using my Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers and my Graph'it brush markers in rainbow colors, just like the background. And in addition to the images from Party Time, I picked a kitty from Cuddly Cats, and gifts from Birthday Wreath.

Once everything was colored, I cut the largest Eyelet Rectangle out of vellum, temporarily taped it to my Layered Balloons panel using washi tape, and attached all my images on the vellum using 1mm and 2mm foam squares.


My greeting is from Party Time. I gold heat embossed "Let's" on white cardstock and trimmed it into a slim banner using a Sentiment Strips die. And I white heat embossed "Party" on pink cardstock and cut it using the matching die. I attached both pieces on my panel using foam squares.

Next I attached my balloon panel to a white card base, next the vellum panel using liquid glue only behind the images, I applied a little bit of morning dew nuvo drops on the pink hearts, and finished my card by adding highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen.

    Blog hops like these introduce me to those who make cards whom I've never come across before and having only been making cards for about 9 months, I have plenty more to "meet"!
