BIRTHDAY CHEER BUNDLE...

I was sitting in front of the tv the other night watching one of my favorite programs A Million Little Things (amazing show) and decided I needed to be doing something productive rather than just sitting there.   So, during the first commercial I set up a folding table and grabbed a few supplies.  

I chose the new Birthday Cheer bundle from the Occasions catalog.  I stamped the images on watercolor paper with Stazon Black ink.  

I let the ink dry a bit and watched a few more minutes of my show.  Then I grabbed an aquapainter and some Balmy Blue ink and started adding color to the background.  I let it dry and repeated until I was happy with the result when it was dry. 

Next I grabbed my markers and colored the images....I used a combination of Stampin' Write markers and Stampin Blends. 

Finally I stamped the greeting at the top of the card using my Stamparatus.  

I adhered the art piece to Gorgeous Grape mat layer using LOTS of Tombow because the watercolor paper was warped from all the processes I had applied to it. Then I adhered it to a Basic Black card base.   

I put it under a book and let it dry for 10 minutes or so ...and it was dry and completely flat when I removed the book.  

I LOVE how the background turned out!
