Hi friends! This is Amanda from Twiddler's Nook. After Christmas brings us a few more birthdays in the family so I usually need to sprinkle those in my Valentine crafting and thought it would be fun to share one with you today. This was for my dad a few weeks ago and I absolutely love how it turned out!
I started things with the Pretty Pink Posh Birthday Candles, die cutting the pieces and gluing them together with liquid glue. This gave me my color palette when coloring my images.
I chose images from Lawn Fawn Yappy Birthday Add On and Pawsome Birthday stamp sets. After coloring everything with copic markers, I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. For my "ground" I chose a Pretty Pink Posh sentiment strip to stamp and cut out.
I used the Spellbinders Tiny Dots embossing folder on a piece of white cardstock, glued my candles directly to it with liquid glue and used a combo of foam squares and liquid glue to adhere the images and sentiment strip. Then I popped the whole panel up on a white card base with foam tape.
For finishing touches today I added glossy accents to the candle flames and bits of the images like puppy noses, some of the flags, party hat and bone on the cupcake. I like the addition of bits and pieces being shiny to catch your eye and draw interest around the scene.
I appreciate you sharing your time with me. Have a fabulous day!
