Hello hello!
A clean and simple card from me today...
I was inspired by sketch #256 at AAA Cards
and the theme "Cheers to the Years" (PP671) at The Paper Players
Here is my card...
I started by stamping the candles with embossing ink, then heat embossing with gold embossing powder. The stars and sparkles were also heat embossed in gold.
The candles were watercolored with Distress Oxide Inks.
The sentiment was stamped and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
I really enjoyed challenging myself to keep the card CAS, as my design style is typically more layered and embellished.
Thanks so much for stopping by!!
