Belated Birthday Cards

I had a couple of birthdays I missed for some girls at work.  So this weekend I worked on some cards.
Here are my cards.

This one was done with a new technique I hadn't done before.  It is using the Twinkling H2Os.  I stamped the butterfly image (GinaK Designs stamp Believe In Yourself Duo) with StazOn Jet Black ink.  Then used the Twinkling H2Os to color in the butterfly images.  I wanted a little more color on the card, so I used a scrap of shelf liner and dipped it in the Twinkling H2Os and daubed it on the card front to give the look of sky.  I then stamped the Happy Birthday sentiment.  I layered this on a yellow, orange and wisteria wonder card stock to complete the look.

My second card:

This card uses the Twinkling H2Os, too.  I just can't get enough of them!  They are so much fun to play with!  I first stamped the flower image (GinaK Designs stamp Doodle Flowers Duo) with VersaMark ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.  I then used the Twinkling H2Os to "resist" coloring.  The Twinkling H2Os won't stick to the embossing, therefore it resists the ink, hence the "resist" coloring. :)  I then put the ribbon to separate out the two colored backgrounds and placed on a lavender card stock and finished it off with a GinaK Designs Wild Orchid card stock.

I hope you enjoy the cards!  Let me know if you use Twinkling H2Os and how you used them in your crafting!  They are so much fun to work with!

Until next time!  Happy Crafting!
