For my card today, I started by applying a watercolor wash on Ranger Watercolor Paper with Peerless Watercolors then stamped Distressed Patterns with Delicata Gold ink. Next I cut one of the YAY dies from the kit and embossed the stitch line that comes with the banner set. Then I adhered a panel of paper stamped with Happy Birthday Background behind the cut out letters and popped the whole thing up on foam on a Sweet Tooth card stock base.

The sentiment was heat embossed on Black Licorice card stock cut with a die from Hearts in a Row – Vertical Die-namics and popped up on foam. To finish off I added some Ebony Black Nuvo Crystal Drops. Tip: create Nuvo drops ahead of time on a non-stick surface and adhere with glue when dry.

And there you have it! Thanks so much for stopping by! See you back tomorrow for Day Two!
