Card #1 Ink Blend
The Details
Doesn’t this card look like a party? All the vibrant colors, confetti, and sequins feel so very festive. Check out the video to see how these backgrounds were made with this Distress color blend: Prized Ribbon, Dried Marigold, and Festive Berries.
To add to the party, we need some booze! Cheers to the birthday guy or gal with the fantastic If You Were Whiskey stamp set + matching die. It could be a general congratulations card too since I added the Cheers sentiment from Heart of Christmas.
Card #2 With the Leftovers
The Details
I had some leftovers from the first card and put that ink smooshed background to work for a second card and die cut out a scalloped circle to frame the whiskey tumbler.
I added a sentiment and some stars from the Extended Celebration stamp set to send some boozy wishes.
