Two of my staff have birthdays around the holidays. It's always difficult to separate the two; sometimes it's easier to just give in. This was a simple answer to the problem. I masked off a wide strip across the card, then laid my oval mask on top of it. I sponged with Antique linen and warmed it up with a little Mowed lawn, then removed the masks and stamped the borders where the masked strip was. I added the garland at the top and embellished the oval with tiny drops of Stickles. When I stamped the birthday sentiment, my intention was to mask off the balloons, but on the second stamping I didn't clean the stamp well enough and the balloons left a shadow. So I re-colored them with markers and matched the balloons to the tapestry. Two media: Distress Inks and Stickles
