Vicki a/k/a vdutchr on Split Coast Stampers, issued a challenge to make a birthday card.
I chose to use this fabulous new set releasing in August called “Owl Be Here”. Isn’t he a grand looking owl! This card is going to a friend who turned 50. That fabulous background is from another Mark’s set called “Background Fun” which is available now.
I stamped the owl image with Versamark and then used gold embossing powder. Then I stamped it again with black Andirondack ink (also available at MarkÂ’s), colored it with prismas, cut it out and glued inside the gold frame. I stamped the sentiment inside a Spellbinder and used an EK punch for my border. Added a MarkÂ’s charm and brad and my card was ready to go.
I hope you’re ready to go too – right to the Stamin B challenge this week. Let’s see your birthday card!
