21 again

Good morning folks

How are we all doing? I have been keeping myself busy with household chores and a little crafting. I have been cracking on with Easter cards and will be able to share those with you all after Easter. I think with everything that is going on at the moment I will probably be sending more Easter cards than usual - it's a good thing I have plenty of time (and craft stash😄😄😄!!!!).

Back to today and I am sharing yet another 21st birthday card which I made for my son's birthday - 

For this card I have used - 

• balloon sentiments stamp and die box kit from Crafter's Companion
• balloon numbers stamp and die set from Crafter's Companion
• Memento inks - Paris dusk, Danube blue and summer sky
• clear embossing powder
• matt black card
• stars silver mirri
• Sheena's stamping card
• Gemini stitch edge hexagon dies

I stamped the balloon numbers and sentiments with the Memento inks and then overstamped then with Versamark and heat embossed with clear embossing powder so that they resembled real balloons. I use a stamp platform so was able to overstamp easily.

To create the background I used - 

• Spectrum Noir Harmony inks - baby blue, ocean blue and midnight
• Spectrum Noir Midas ink - silver
• Tinsel silver embossing powder
• AALL and Create totally dotty stencil

I really went to town on the background of this card. I used the stencil and the lightest shade of ink, then moved the stencil and applied the next shade and moved the stencil a final time and used the darkest shade of ink. I randomly stamped the confetti from the stamp set with Versamark and then heat embossed with the silver tinsel embossing powder.

That's all from me today folks. 

Stay safe.
