Hi everyone, today we are finally back with a more recent created project and that is this fun birthday card project!

Step 1:
I started my project by stamping some of the images from the JMA-ES-STAMP138 stamp set onto Strathmore Bristol Smooth Surface paper using a juicy black ink and heat embossing directly afterwards using a clear embossing powder and my heat tool.
Next I can colour the images using my JMA Light Markers in combination with my waterbrush. I used the following marker colours: Pale Cream, Golden Yellow, Peony Deep, Magenta Deep, Old Red and Pine Forest. After the colouring is done and dry I added back in some highlights using a white gel pen and I fussy cut the images using my scissors.

Step 2:
Now that my focal point is ready I can work on my background: for this I die cut a square panel from one of the design papers in the JMA-WAC-PP17 paper pad, two sizes smaller than my card base.
On this panel I stamp my sentiment (this particular one is from the Clearly Besotted stamp set called “Happy Birthday”) and I picked a stencil (JMA-WAC-MASK56) and applied some Imagination Crafts Sparkle Medium in “Champagne” over the stencil using a palette knife and set that aside to dry.

Step 3:
Next I die cut a slightly larger square panel from black card stock and adhered the smaller panel on top using liquid glue. This combination I adhered onto a cream coloured card base using one millimetre thick foam tape. And to finish the project I now only have to adhere the coloured and fussy cut images on top also using one millimetre thick foam tape.

And that is it for today’s birthday card project! I wish you a creative day!
