Sending You Birthday Fishes

Hello there, Michelle here and I have a card to share with you using the new I’m A Puffer For You Stamp Set, along with the Puffer Frame Cuts. It is such a fun set that can be used for lots of different occasions but today, I went with a masculine themed birthday card.

I started off by cutting a piece of watercolour paper using one of the dies from the Rectangle Infinity Dies set. I blended Broken China and Faded Jeans Distress Oxide Inks in to the middle and sprayed with water. This was set aside to dry. I took two of the puffer fish and the party hat from the I’m A Puffer For You Stamp Set and stamped these with Intense Black Ink. I coloured them with Copic Markers and then cut them out with the coordinating dies.

I stamped the sentiment using Versmark Ink on to black cardstock and then applied White Embossing Powder. It was heat set and then cut in to strips. The background piece was added to a black card base and then the fish, party hats and sentiment were added with foam tape.

Thanks so much for visiting us today, happy stamping!
