I adore the new Happy Birthday Script Die-namics! You really don’t need anything else except a good background and a few simple embellishments to create a gorgeous card! This was probably the second alcohol ink background I created and couldn’t use it for what I was making it for. Imagine my surprise when I dropped some Slate (deep GRAY) alcohol ink on Yupo paper and started to work it! It developed into a gorgeous verdigris and copper pattern! So I set it aside and knew it would come in handy at some point and this is that point. I matted it with Tangy Orange card stock and popped it up on a Sno Cone card stock base.

Then I cut Happy Birthday Script Die-namics from Copper Sparkle card stock, layered it with a Tangy Orange copy and a Sno Cone copy and adhered it to the card front. To finish off I added some Metallic Copper Penny Nuvo Crystal drops and called it done! It came together really quickly since the background was already done.

And that’s it! I hope I’ve given you some ideas for using YOUR new September goodies in some fun ways. Thanks so much for stopping by…and happy shopping!! And don’t forget that
