Inside Greetings Belated Birthday Card with Nicky

Welcome to the Sunny Studio Stamps blog today, this is Nicky with you with everything you need to know about how I made this belated birthday card featuring the Inside Greetings Belated Birthday Stamp Set. 

I took a white A2 panel of sturdy cardstock and used the Sunburst Embossing Folder on it and then used Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink and a blending brush and in circular movements both clockwise and anti clockwise I blended to emphasise the embossed effect and create some warmth. I die cut a simple circle of white cardstock and glued it a fraction above centre.

I stamped some images from Party Pets and coloured with the following Copic markers:

Cat - E74, E71, E70, E40, W00
Blush - R22, R21, R20, R00
Beige - E44, E31, E42, E40
Blue - BG01, B01, B00, B000
Red - R39, R29, R24
Pink - RV02, RV52

I stamped the large Happy Birthday sentiment with Versamark Ink and heat embossed with Wow! Opaque Pastel Blue Embossing Powder. I also stamped the word 'belated' from the Inside Greetings Belated Birthday Stamp Set. I used pink ink to do this and then I backed all images with dimensional foam tape and adhered them in position. I highlighted my coloured images with a white gel pen.

I found some party streamer images from the Party Pets stamp set and stamped them in toning colours around the cat. I added Nuvo drops in toning colours throughout the sunburst and set the panel aside to dry.

I stamped the long inside greeting from the Inside Greetings Belated Birthday Stamp Set. Rather than stamp directly I stamped it on a die cut created by using the Rounded Rectangle Mat Dies. I used a foam blender and more Spun Sugar ink to edge it and then glued it to the inside of the card. I then came in with the tiny heart image and stamped the pastel hearts just for a little added interest.

I appreciate you coming by to read the blog today and will be back next Friday with something brand new to share. Happy crafting!
