Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
Happy Birthday/Anniversary to Darlene and Diane of Double D fame.
Their challenge is celebrating 9 years. I've given them a candle to grow on.
These candle dies have been sitting in my NBUS box for way too long.
I've die cut the candles from Neenah Solar White and brushed Simon Says Stamp
Pawsitively Saturated Ink in various colors. There's a solid die in the set and the candle
flame so I cut those out of the Neenah too.
After coloring the candles, I used the leftover ink on the brushes to add a
stenciled background.
Challenges:
Double D - Birthday or Anniversary
NBUS #70 - Never Before Used Schtuff
Seize the Birthday #297 - Use something new
Stencil Fun - Did not us the Winter option
Card Recipe
Stamps: Friendship Messages (SSS)
Ink: Cadette, Fairway, Amethyst, Guava, Sherbet, Sunbeam, Citrus (SSS), Versafine Onyx Black
Paper: Neenah Solar White
Other: Patterned Birthday Candles Dies (Frantic Stamper), Square Dance Stencil (Artsploratons)
Enjoy!
