Happy Birthday by Niccole

Hello Ai fans!!

I am stopping by today to share a card I made using the Birthday Cake stamp set from Art Impressions.  

I stamped my cake image and Copic Colored it.  I fussy cut it out.  I like that the cake has "Happy Birthday" stamped on it so I don't need to add a sentiment.  The cake can be my focal point.

I wanted my card to have a black base. I think it will really make my stenciled portion pop.  I used a stencil from my stash to distress some red ink on. I added black Nuvo Drops around the card for some dimension.  

I raised my cake image up with foam tape.  I love adding foam tape to make the stamped images stand out even more than they already do. 

Here is one more look at the finished card.

Thank you so much for stopping by and spending a little time with me.  Make sure you come back soon to the Ai blog and see what the team has been up to.
