Birthday Fishes

Hello again!  WOW…two cards in one day!  Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps is adding an adorable new stamp set to the store today, Birthday Pals!  These cute critters are perfect for sending happy birthday wishes that are sure to make you smile.

Creative Nugget:  See what I mean!  I had so much fun with this shaker card for my grand-niece.  The front of the card was made with Color Burst pigment powders, a wave stencil, and the Salt Technique.  The sentiment was embossed with Liquid Platinum powder and a few leaves from Scribble Flowers were added to the back panel to look like seaweed.  Woooo-Hooo…matching Birthday Pals Dies were used to cut the fish which were stamped and colored with Copic Markers.  The Reflection Technique was used to make one of the fish facing the opposite direction. Metallic thread was used for the balloon string instead of the stamped string and was tied to the fish's tail.  Sequins and seed beads were added to the inside of the shaker, Glossy Accents applied to the balloon, and lots of shimmer added with Wink of Stella to finish the card.

Here are the stamp sets from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store that were used:

This card will be submitted for the following challenges:
