Addressed To You Sparkly Birthday Wishes Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features the lovely Addressed To You stamp set, with images that work for so much more than just your envelopes.  There are multiple images for occasions throughout the year sized to fit perfectly in the opening of the oval or rectangle included in this set.  


Techniques include two-step stamping and heat embossing.   This card has lots of sparkle, from the silver foil sheet mat layer, the silver embossed stamped image and the rhinestones and faceted circles.  It's easy to add sparkle and shine to your card in a variety of ways.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

It's easy to add dimension and reflection to your images with the Stampin' Blends Color Lifter (designed to work with the Stampin' Blends Markers).  Whether it's to show a glimmer in an eye, or the shine on a balloon, a couple quick swipes or taps with the Color Lifter adds this feature for you.  


This Color Lifter also easily removes any little oops, where you've colored outside the line and want to clean up the edge.  It's magic!  Simply run the tip over the color you want removed and watch it disappear.  Note that it takes a minute for the ink to dry.

  • Pretty In Pink cardstock 
    • card base 4-1/4 x 11 scored & folded at 5-1/2    OR    5-1/2 x 8-1/2 scored & folded at 4-1/4
  • Silver Foil Sheets

=============================================================
Here's How It's Made:

Adhere Silver Foil panel to folded card front, adhere pink dotted DSP layer to Silver Foil.




Note: When working with a larger, rather floppy stamp like the oval, lay oval with image side down onto grid paper, allow to relax, then place clear block onto stamp to have the oval maintain its proper shape. For this card, I placed the balloon stamp onto the same block with the oval and stamped the entire image at once

Ink oval and balloons with Versamark, stamp onto Basic White die cut piece.  Sprinkle with Silver Embossing Powder, shake off excess, melt powder with Heat Tool to set.


Color the three balloons with Dk Pretty In Pink and Lt & Dk Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blends.  Use color lifter to draw a slight curve near top of each balloon for reflection detail.


Ink Happy and Birthday with Flirty Flamingo, stamp inside oval.

Adhere die cut to card front, centering.



Embellish with small rhinestones and small and medium pearlized faceted circles, covering the circles around the balloons.
