A grey hare birthday card

Hello and welcome, Anita from the Design Team here today to show you a birthday card. Birthday card!!?? Yep, I have made a birthday card with this ADORABLE new hare stamp.

Those who know me know that I'm not a typical card maker so I had to have a little humorous touch on it, so here is my version of the hare stamp, hope you like it!


It was very easy to make it. I used only a little white cardboard some black cardboard, embossing folder and Distress Oxide, as well as a paper doll from Tim Holtz and of course stamps from Rubber Dance.

I started by embossing white cardstock and colored it with Distress Oxide. I tore the edges to soften it slightly to coorporate with the white cardboard back. I glued it down on the white cardstock with double sided tape.

On the back of the card I glued white cardstock on the black one and then stamped "If age is just a number...how come you look so OLD" with black Archival Ink and "Happy Birthday" with grey Arhival ink.


I chopped the head of this little man


And stamped the hare head on tissue paper, tore it out and glued it to the top of the body


I also stamped the carot on tissue paper and glue it down in this hare mans hand.




Thank you for visiting. Please join the Rubber Dance Challenge this month, there is still a few days left.

Hugs, Anita

LOL, this is such a funny birthday card! Love it!!!
Thanks for sharing, Anita! I know you're usually not a card maker, but you certainly have knack for it! ♥ ♥ ♥
Let's hear it from our blog readers - do you want to see more cards from Anita, or should she stick to her colourful art journal pages?

Atc´s Textured Birds by Verónica

Image
Hi everyone, Verónica is here. Today I come with a colorful and fun series of Atc´s that I have made with the beautiful  Textured Birds set .  Let's go step by step, so you can cheer up and make your own.I hope you enjoy it and you like it, it is done with great affection. We cut watercolor paper that measures 3 1/2 inches by 2 1/2 inches, if you prefer in centimeters 8,9cm by 6,4 cm approximately. Now we create the backgrounds by coloring with watercolors, pigments, or inks. I have used pigments dissolved in water, to give it a watercolor effect. When they are ready and dry we apply textured paste with some stencils that we like. In my case Distress Textured Paste (crackle). We can use the embossing gun to speed up the process or let it dry. We continue, we are going to stamp these adorable and cute little birds with a waterproof ink. Comes one of the most relaxing and fun parts, the coloring. You can use what you have or what you are used to
