Easy Starry Birthday Card

Hello and welcome!  Seeka here and today I'm sharing a quick and easy card that would be great to mass produce so that you always have a birthday card on hand!

I started by positioning the most detailed layer of the Color Layering Scattered Stars Stencils set over a 4.25" x 5.5" panel of Cascade Cardstock.  Using a blending brush, I blended a very light layer of Cornflower Core Ink over the stencil and onto the cardstock panel.

Next, I positioned the second-most detailed layer of the stencil set over the panel and blended a heavier layer of Cornflower Core Ink over the stencil. Then I positioned the last stencil layer over the panel and blended Deep Ocean Core Ink over top.

For the sentiment, I used dies from the It's Our Anniversary Stamp & Cut XL set to cut the shadow layer from Dove White cardstock and the detail sentiment layer from Cosmic Sky Cardstock. I glued the two layers together and then used foam tape to adhere the piece to the stenciled background. To finish, I glued the card front to a top-folding card base.

Thank you so much for visiting!
