It's A Girl! | Art Impressions

Hello friends!  A very happy new year to you!  Today I have a sweet card using a few stamps from the adorable Baby Girl Set.

I stamped these three images in Copic safe ink and colored them with the Copic markers listed below.    I did a bit of "stamp surgery" to be able to stamp the It's A without masking part of it off.  No worries, I'll easily be able to use it fully when I need to.  I die cut the panel with one of the Rectangle Double Stitched dies.

I wanted the "girl" stamped image to look like balloons, so I used a fine point black pen to draw strings around the letters as if they are floating in the air.  Then I added some clear sparkle to them with a clear sparkle pen.  I then added some Diamond Glaze (similar to Glossy Accents) to them for more dimension.  After it dried, I noticed that the glaze had darkened my coloring.  Before the glaze, the letters were the same color as the pink dress.  I think still it works, but definitely something to remember in the future.

I added some foam tape to the back and added it to the lacy die cut and adhered it all to a top-folding A2 card base.

Such a sweet and easy card that was quick to make!  Thank you for stopping by today.  Have a wonderful, crafty week!
