15 Minute Project ... A Quick & Dirty Birthday Card

Pin It


My allergies are kickin' my butt today so this post will be short and sweet ... kinda like me!

I stamped my image on Xerox 110# card stock, then colored it in with Copic markers. Using a W1 marker, I created a shadow behind and below the image ... which doesn't show at all in my photograph. The dang thing looks like it's suspended in mid-air! But, IRL, it's grounded with a very respectable shadow.

I tied this kewl little word license plate to a twig with embroidery floss, tied on some scraps of ribbon, then glued the whole shebang to my Bazzill card stock base.

Easy-peasy and ready to serve in just 15 Minutes!

Thanks for sharing part of your busy weekend with me ... and I hope that your tomorrow (and mine!), is allergy-symptom-free!

~Hugs,


Ingredients: Card Stock: Bazzill, Xerox 1003; Stamp: Pink Cat Studio; Ink: Palette Hybrid; Copic Markers; Twig: Mother Nature; License Plate: Unknown; Embroidery Floss: DMC; Ribbon: Michaels; Adhesive: Scotch ATG; Dimensionals: Fiskars; Cuttlebug Die-Cutting Machine; Spellbinder's Nestabilities Dies

Well, I waited about 15 mins while I checked on 10 other blogs, but the picture is still loading. Whatever you made should be gorgeous. Will stop by tomorrow. Chao.
