A You've Got this Birthday Card

To make this "You've Got This" birthday card I stamped the flower using the Versa Mark pad and white embossing powder.  I colored in the flower using Daffodil Delight, Calypso Coral, and Wild Wasabi markers and a blender pen.  I colored in the whole flower first and then I came back with another layer of color. You can do this up to three times before the card stock begins to slough.  Sometimes you can get by with it if you aren't too aggressive with the pen.  You do need to remember to pat the flower down after each coloring.  The ink beads up on the embossing powdered lines.

The words are from my computer and set in place using a layer of Calypso Coral and a scalloped circle using Wild Wasabi.  This piece was set in place using Dimensionals.

This was a fun card to make and I LOVE coloring!!!  I like to keep my blender pen very wet so the color goes on smoother. Click here to learn how to take your pen apart.  There you will find a link to the recipe to refill it.  If the tip of your pen is wore down to the point to where it's soft and you can no longer do details, you may want to just skip the refill and get a new pen.  Or you could refill it and use it in large areas.

Thank you SO much for visiting today,
