I made a slimline birthday card using an AALL & Create Flourish Clear Stamp by Tracy Evans


I used Versafine Black Pigment Ink and Clear Embossing Powder to heat emboss the image before spritzing with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Spray and splattering with Dylusions Lemon Zest and Black Marble sprays. I colored with Zig Brush Markers and added a Tim Holtz Label Sticker and a few Orca Sequins to finish.





Thanks for looking :-)
