So I may have gone a bit overboard. I decided to make birthday cards using the PML Cards. I started with just making five and then just kept going. I ended up making 13 and only have 6 of the PML cards from the pack remaining.
For this card I created a background using my Oxide inks and then cut down the Birthday PML card.
These two I created based on patterns 2 & 17 in the Make It from your Heart Volume 4 book. I added some of the In This Together Dots and a Yellow Acrylic Stars.
By trimming off the sentimentI and repositioning it I was able to make it an A4 card size.
For these two I actually used two PML cards. I cut the medium Stitched Rectangle to frame the smaller PML card and paired it with coordinating cardstock. I added a Pink Acrylic Heart and a Yellow Acrylic star. The sentiment on the right is from the Birthday Banners Stamp and Thin Cuts.
The one on the right I hand cut balloons. I added a bit of Liquid glass to all of the ballons. The sentiments are from the On Your Birthday stamp set.
For these two I used some fo the same elements as above, just in a landscape card.
The card on the right uses two PML cards and I used the Raspberry Shimmer brush to go over the sentiment. The card on the left uses the Happy Birthday from the Happy Birthday Wood Shapes. I used Chipped Sapphire Oxide ink to color and then went over with my Sapphire Shimmer Brush.
Your next stop is along this hop is DARLYS RECKER’S Blog so hop on over and see what wonderful creation she has for you today.
Happy Crafting!
Here is the list of supplies used to create this card:
With this card, I used the Honeycomb Embossing folder with the Outdoor Denim, then took a sanding block and ran it over the top of the embossed cardstock. I used the new Hello Summer C1595 stamp set which I inked in Outdoor Denim on Ruby cardstock. I also used Lagoon and Whisper cardstock. To add a little more texture I used the Aqua dots and a bit of Liquid Glass on the white circles in the cup to look like moisture.
