Butterfly Birthday Card

Hi and welcome to my blog. I love playing with all kinds of stamping techniques and I used a few of them on my card today. 



The background was made by thinly applying glue here and there on the white card stock. When the glue dried I sponged various colors of Distress inks over the whole card stock and the glue acted as a resist. I then stamped a script stamp on the background on the right side. I stamped and heat embossed the butterfly using purple embossing powder. I also added a little copper embossing powder too. At the bottom I stamped a swirl stamp and used copper and a chunky bits embossing powder and heat set it. 

Stamps:  Butterfly Kisses - BoBunny
               Swirl - Inkadinkado
               Italian Poetry Background - Hero Arts (script stamp)

Embossing Powders:  Concord - Sparkle N Sprinkle
                                 Encrusted Jewels - Stampendous

Inks:  Seedles Preserves, Tumbled Glass, Gathered Twigs - Ranger
