A Dragon's Happy Birthday Fractured Card
Well, my mom and I are enjoyed our weeklong summer family "stay-cation" and decided to make a few cards between fixing our crafting room, a day trip to Logan, Utah, my Watercoloring and my mom scrapbooking, and getting ready for the Eastern Idaho State Fair. Looking into all the card challenges we like to participate in we decided to make some New Year's cards and Happy Birthday cards for the Lunar Challenge and Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge.
For this card my mom made a Dragon Birthday Card.
She started out with a pink cardstock for the card base.
Using My Favorite Things Magical Dragons stamp and coordinating die set, she stamped out the dragons on Canson 140 lb. watercolor paper and then cut them out. She used Tim Holtz distress watercolor pencils and fossilized amber distress Spritz Spray to color the dragons and to spritz the paper for the happy birthday sentiment.
She used blue glimmer paper and Lawn Fawn Summertime paper to create the fractures behind the dragon. She stamped Happy Birthday sentiment with Tim Holtz faded jeans distress inks. The Happy Birthday sentiment is from the Simon Says Stamp Celebrate Stamp Set.
Here is the card:
......and that's it!
Happy crafting to you all! We hope you feel inspired to create something and if you can, craft with your family and/or friends and make some fun memories together!
