I have created a birthday card for a young man I used to key work. I needed it to be fun, textured and more like a card for a child to be of interest to him.
I have stamped the whale with distress ink and then heat embossed it three times with clear embossing powder and fussy cut it. I have paired it with a lovely full sheet bubble background die which I've layered over some embossed card stock & then added stickles to the embossed dots to add more texture & interest for him.
