Happy Birthday Ya Old Fart

 

IC1070 - Painted Paper - INSPIRATION

For my card, I drew inspiration from the gorgeous wallpaper and pulled out a piece of patterned paper from my stash that I am determined to use up this year. I trimmed it down, layered it over crisp white, and set the panel on a bold aqua card base to give the whole design a fresh, vibrant frame.

This fun Unity Stamp Co image felt like the perfect match, so I colored him with Copics in shades that coordinate with the patterned layers. After trimming the panel to size, I added soft aqua sponging around the edges to give the image a finished look and help it stand out against the background.

To complete the card, I chose the playful sentiment from the set and popped it up on dimensionals for a clean, cheerful finish.

Thank you for stopping by to see my card today. Your thoughtful comments are always appreciated. If you leave a note, a visit to your blog will follow.
