Hi friends! Today it is all about "splatters" on our birthday cards for Seize the Birthday.
Glenda is the lead on this challenge!
I used the same fun SSS Party Balloons embossing folder that I used in January, this time I ink blended some greens and blues on my card before embossing it. This particular ef comes with one balloon die, so I cut out a couple of balloons and strategically placed them over 2 balloons. I added some Twisted Crepe dies from the Greetery cut with gold mirror paper and the sentiment is a PTI DIE. I splattered with gold ink to tie it all in.
I think this card is fun and festive!
So the challenge is to use splatters on your birthday card, that is the "topping", if you don't want to use the topping, then you are free to make any kind of birthday card and still play along with us!
See you in the gallery!
And please check out the design team with all their fun inspiring splatters!
Our Special Party Guest for the next two months is Deborah Wheeler
