TLC540 Wild Birthday

Photo Details

Poster: beesmom

Had some fun with our technique challenge (TLC540): camouflaged die cuts. I masked off my panel, blended inks to create a night sky (masking for moon) and then stamped my silhouette stamps. Added a bit of extra ground with a marker. As I was die cutting my "wild" I realized my first 2 letters weren't lined up perfectly, so then I decided to go with the more random, "wild" look. I like that this card can work for a guy card, too.

Great card. I thought the "wild" letter placement was very creative and intentional!

This is amazing. Your sponged sky is fabulous, and you are right, could be used for either a guy or gal!

Awesome! Your positioning of the cut out word is just perfect beneath the largest image on the card. This is just plain cool!
