Hi everyone! Today I am back with a fun birthday card featuring some no-line coloring with alcohol markers on kraft cardstock. The stamp set I used for this easy birthday card is the Studio Katia Cactus Hugs stamp set. Make sure to check the end of this post for a step by step video tutorial!
BACKGROUND
I started by creating the elements for my card background. I used the Darling Ribbon & Frames dies to cut some Neenah Desert Storm cardstock and the Dotted Square Frame Die to cut some Bristol Smooth Cardstock.
I glued the two panels flat on top of each other.
IMAGES
The images I used are part of the Studio Katia Cactus Hugs stamp set. To spice things up a little, I decided to do some no-line coloring with Illustrator markers on Neenah Desert storm cardstock. Here is a list of the markers I used
Vases: TN8, TN5, TN2
Green 1: DG4, DG3, DG2, DG1
Green 2: YG3, YG2, YG1
Purple: DP3, DP1
Once I was done coloring, I die cut everything with the coordinating dies.
I stamped the sentiment on some more Neenah Desert Storm cardstock and trimmed a banner around it.
I finished off the card by adding a few Gold Foil Pearls and by mounting everything on a top folding A2 card base.
