Happy Birthday, Georgia!

Another birthday card for a friend from our stamping group. Hope you have a great one, Georgia!

I made this card a couple weeks ago for the SplitCoastStampers Technique Lover's Challenge. The challenge was to do a "no-line piercing" technique and then color it. (You can find the tutorial here. Basically, you stamp on the back of your cardstock, pierce around the lines of the stamped image, and then turn it over and color.) I used an Inkadinkado tulip stamp and watercolored with an aquapainter and Stampin' Up! inks. I matted with Mellow Moss cardstock and mounted on foam squares. I embossed the bottom piece with a Stampin' Up!/Sizzix folder. The sentiment is from TPC Studio.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

  6. Oh, I see! Interesting! And then you would actually have a reverse image. Pretty cool! I like how it turned out. Mellow Moss is still one of my favorite greens, too.
