Seize The Birthday 'Fave Technique' Challenge


Hi all :-) I am back with another card as a guest on the Seize the Birthday Challenge. For the next 2 weeks the theme is Anything Birthday + the optional topping of :




I think my go to fave technique has to be stencilling, but I also love spritzing so I did a bit of both ;-)

For this card I used many products that are in the Simon Says Stamp June Card Kit 


I spritzed the background with Dylusions Lemon Zest Ink and then used a new Simon Says Stamp Slimline Sunburst Stencil and Starshine Stickles Glitter Gel to add some fabulous sunshiny sparkle.  I die cut a circle for the sentiment and then fussy cut the kitty and clouds that are in the Happiest Wishes Stamp Set .


and I used the Sunburst Stencil  to decorate the envelope

I know that it can be hard to pick a favorite technique, but I love that you did two of them. They are perfect for your sunshine card. I bet it looks amazing with those sparkly rays of sunshine.
