Happy Birthday


Another card for my Online Card Class - CAS3 homework.  This is a case of a card that Debby Hughes created for Textural Effects - this is using embossing paste and a stencil.  The Hero Arts butterfly was stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed with white detailed embossing powder.  I then cut the butterfly mask with the companion die and placed it over the butterfly.  I stamped the Hero Arts sentiment in Versafine Onyx Black and then placed the Simon Says Stamp Falling Hearts stencil over the card front.  I applied Dreamweaver Embossing Paste over the stencil and carefully removed the stencil.  When the paste was dry I colored the butterfly with Copic markers using the colors from the Dynamic Duos Color Challenge

I added 3 small heart sequins around the sentiment which I thought gave the design more balance.
I am also submitting this card to the Moxie Fab World - Stencils and  Card Concept - Birthday.

I'm not sure which category to place my card - I think it might be Clean and Layered due to the embossing paste over most of the card.

Thanks for coming by!

    Very cool, Harriet! I need to get out my embossing paste, too. Love the sentiment and how it fits perfectly in between the hearts.
