Today's card features one of the cute stamps from the set that I won recently on the House Mouse & Friends Challenge. The set is called 'Birthday Splash' by Stampendous, and I stamped the image and one of the matching sentiments on to some watercolour paper, then coloured it using watercolour pencils, before cutting it out using one of my circle Nesties. I lightly distressed the edges of the image, and those of a strip of paper from the 'Let's Celebrate' pad from Poundland, then added them both to a kraft card blank.
Challenges for this card:
- Crafty Catz - Anything Goes
- Dream Valley - Four-legged Friends
- House Mouse & Friends - Anything Goes (Optional 'Birthdays')
- Krafty Chicks - All Occasions
- Moving Along with the Times - Birthday
