Happy Birthday with Butterflies & Flowers Decorative Masks

This Happy Birthday card features the new Butterflies & Flowers Decorative Masks from the Jan-June Mini Catalog.  These stencils are an easy way to blend colors and create beautiful backgrounds.  The images really pop whey you layer the detailed masks and create dimension with different ink colors.  These masks have butterflies and flowers some large and some smaller for fantastic backgrounds.

Card Details:

• Smoky Slate Cardstock card base:  5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
• Highland Heather Cardstock layer:  4 1/2" x 3 3/4"
• White Cardstock layer:  4 1/4" x 3 1/2"
• I used the Stampin' Up! Blending Brushes with Highland Heather Ink for the first layer on the larger butterfly image.  Then I layered the more detailed butterfly stencil and used Gorgeous Grape Ink.  For the corner flowers, I used Smoky Slate Ink
• The "Happy Birthday" sentiment from the Artistically Inked Stamp Set is stamped on Black Cardstock with Versamark Ink and embossed with White Embossing Powder

Special Customer Thank You - Wink of Stella Glitter Brush

I made these special thank you gifts for everyone who ordered my recent Class To Go Kit. I used clear sleeves to hold the Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Brush.  The Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper makes a pretty background.  I stamped the tulips from the Timeless Tulips Stamp Set in Fresh Freesia Ink and Rich Razzleberry Ink.

Details:

• Flowering Fields DSP:  2" x 8"
• Clear pretzel bags you can purchase at your local craft store 
• The 'hello" sentiment and the tulips are both from the Timeless Tulips Stamp Set

 

Flowing Flowers Stamp Set Thank You Card
