I had to make a Belated Birthday card as I completely forgot a friend's card.
My background was made by dry embossing the Broken Chevron stencil from Altenew. I learnt about doing this when I took Laurel Beard's class at the Altenew Academy. Laurel taught us to do the dry embossing and then keeping the stencil in place, blending inks over top. It's hard to see the wonderful texture this gives. I used Altenew inks - Baby Pink, Fuchsia, Limeade and Lime. I then added some Lindy's Gang spray and some white iridescence spray. The shimmer in real life is stunning. I added a flower and bee sticker from Uniti. The sentiment is from WPlus9. I matted the panel into some dark pink card and onto a square card base.
