Hi Everyone!
Today I have a card to show you.
Recently a mom in a group I'm in on Facebook
posted that he twins are turning 6 yrs old and that they
love opening mail. She asked if anyone would be
willing to send them cards for their birthday, just so they
would have them to open from the mail.
Being a card maker, I was happy to help out.
This is the card I made for her little guy.
The background piece was made with alcohol inks
on Yupo paper.
I thought it was a great background for a celebration.
The dogs are Party Poopers
I stamped the image with
and colored them with colored pencils.
I fussy cut the image and adhered it to the background
with foam tape to give it a little dimension.
I stamped the Celebrate with an alpha stamp set
from my stash, I have no idea what company they are from.
I then fussy cut around it to make a banner shape.
The whole thing was then adhered to a white card base.
Inside I simply stamped "Happy Birthday"
I made the envelope with my
and decided to decorate it.
I stamped the fish onto the envelope, then stamped them
onto scrap paper and fussy cut them to make a mask.
I put the mask over the fish (Sm Fat Fish & Lg Fat Fish)
and used Distress Inks to
apply the 'water' to the envelope.
After taking the masks off the fish I colored them with
colored pencils.
I covered the colored areas with
which is a glaze that makes it water resistant,
so the inks and coloring won't be ruined if they get wet.
I think the little guy will get a kick out of receiving
this in the mail.
Thanks for spending time with me today,
I hope you have enjoyed it here at
Kristie Kreates
and will come again soon.
Next up, the card I made for the other twin.
