A Happy Birthday Hello

 Howdy! I've made a set of 4 Hello, Happy Birthday cards. These cards had a LOT of steps to them. Here's a preview of part of the card(s). Click below to see the full set. 

Here's the set of 4 that I made. Each a little different.

For each card I used a cardstock mask so that I could make a colored circle with my inkpad and ink brushes. Each card has a different colored circle except 2 cards that I accidentally made the same color.

All of the "Happy Birthday" rectangles for the sentiment are 3D popped up with some 3D foam dots. The sentiments, including "hello" are all heat embossed. The Happy Birthday is heat embossed in silver and the Hello is all heat embossed in white. All of the flags are heat embossed as well.

All of the cards have sequins on them, arranged in different places, and some have more sequins than other cards.

The speckling you see on the cards is my homemade shimmer mist. I sprayed all of the cards with different colors of it, blue, purple and pink.

This last card is one I accidentally made the circle the same color, it was supposed to be pink, but I just went with it and changed up the colors of the cardstock that I heat embossed the sentiments on.

So, I hope you find these cards at least slightly festive! I sent one to a friend and she loved it, she said it was the only birthday card she got which kind of upset me because she has a lot of friends in her circle who are card makers. But, I'm glad she at least got this card from me and a smile on her face!

Come back soon, I have SOOO much more to share, because I'm so behind on updating. 

Thank you so much for stopping by to check out my crafts!

Keep on Craftin'
