Typed Birthday

Hi and welcome!  Today's card uses the sketch over at Card Challenges as well as the colours from Just Add Ink and the diecuts/stencils theme at Addicted to Stamps and More.


I started out by stenciling an arch onto a white card base using Lost Shadow Distress Ink.  I then set about building the typewriter using the challenge colours from Just Add Ink.  I stamped a sentiment onto the sheet of "paper" with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide Ink and then adhered it to the card base with foam tape.


The sentiment was white heat-embossed onto a strip of Dahlia cardstock and adhered to the card base.  I finished with some die-cut hearts which I covered with clear sparkle pen.

Thanks for visiting!
