Using the Early Espresso Card, Wipe over your card with the Embossing Buddy. Stamp the flower from Birthday Blooms using versa mark ink and then sprinkle with black embossing powder. Tap off excess powder. Using a heat gun melt the powder.
Fill an Aqua Painter filled with bleach. Using this pen start going over the inside of the stamped image. Dry off completely using your heat gun if not already dry. You can also use a paint brush to apply the bleach if you don't have an aqua painter. I've been told to always use fresh bleach, as it does go off and will change the result, apparently.
Using your Stamp Write Markers colour the image to your liking. I used a So Saffron wash then to add a bit of contrast Early Espresso for the flower centre and darker areas. I left the leaves without colouring.
Wipe over your card with the Embossing Buddy. Happy Birthday sentiment is from Remembering Your Birthday stamp set stamped on Whisper White using Versamark, then sprinkle with Black Embossing Powder, and heat with your heat tool. Cut out the sentiment with Project Life Cards and Labels Framelit.
Adhere the layers using tombow or adhesive of your choice. Adhere the sentiment and use Candy Dots to decorate, one at each end of sentiment and then I uses 3 white ones on top right hand corner.
Stamp the inside of your card, I used the smaller single flower from Birthday Blooms and do the same on your envelope to match. I just coloured the centres of the flowers.
Using Wink of Stella Clear go over your flower to give a beautiful glimmery sheen.
