CARD RECIPE

For this frameless/infinity/edge to edge card, lol... whatever you want to call it 😂 I began with ink blending the CRAFTY MERAKI BIRTHDAY BALLOONS STENCIL using Atelier Inks. Once I had blended the first layer I repositioned the stencil and then blended the balloons out again to create the overlapping effect.

I then used a shaker pocket to create the frameless shaker. I used Assorted Moonshine Sequins to fill the shaker. Then once sealed I glued it onto an A2 card base.

I then stamped out the cute images from the CRAFTY MERAKI MAGICAL DAY STAMP SET out and colored them in with Copics and then added white gel pen details and sparkle glitter to some areas. 

For the sentiments, I just stamped them out in white ink and heat embossed them using white emb. pwd.

For my second card, I used the CRAFTY MERAKI LOVE POTION STAMP SET. I stamped it out onto watercolor paper using Fadeout Ink and then colored the beautiful image using Zig Real Color Brush Markers.

Once the coloring had dried, I added white gel pen highlights and prepped the paper for heat embossing using an anti-static tool.

I then stamped the sentiment using watermark ink and heat set it using gold emb. pwd. I used the same products to add a gold edging around the panel.

To finish this beauty, I added a few Gold Pearls.

Here is another close-up of this beauty!

I hope both of these birthday cards inspired you. Thank you for stopping by and until next time... Happy Crafting!

Magical Day Birthday Card

Hey Everyone!

Today I want to share with you this really fun birthday card I made for my God Daughter. If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen I painted this little beauty on our Summer vacation, and recently posted a video clip on cutting it out using the Silhouette Pixscan mat. I knew she would come in handy for a future card and so here is her debut ;)

I really love how this card turned out and thought it was perfect for a little girls birthday!

Here is a closer look at the cutest little unicorn! 

I'm in LOVE with my Zig Clean Color Markers.

I really like making interactive cards, especially for kids and so I added a mini action wobbles to the Unicorn.

...and here is the magical unicorn in action!

I hope this fun interactive Magical Day Birthday Card has inspired you today.

For those of you interested I have a list of all the products I used below.

Happy Crafting  :)
