A bit of a more subdued CAS birthday card today. After cutting a circle stencil, I ink blended Taylored Expressions Oyster ink, then stamped Gina K Designs Friendly’s Silhouette stamp in white pigment ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder. Thankfully I left the stamp in the Misti due to someone not making sure the ink was dry on the blended circle. Wiped off the embossing powder, heated the circle to dry the ink, then repeated the inking and embossing steps. Thankfully it worked. After die cutting a new circle panel and trimming to size my card , I curved the birthday sentiment around my circle and added a small butterfly in black which was from GKD’s Fabulous Frame stamp set
My card will be shared with two birthday challenges today:
Simply Clean & Simple: September 2025 – Birthdays
The Sisterhood of Crafters (9/10/25) Birthdays
