CARD# HPJ-2016-29: Green Birthday

Hi! This one here is a simple mixed media card. The embellishments are minimal yet there is still some texture and dimension that make it interesting. I made it for a colleague's mom. I was told that she liked it. I'm glad she did. Here it is.

The card measures 4 1/2"x5 3/4".

I can't remember exactly how much time I spent on this card, but it was really short. I used light molding paste to stencil onto the background of the card. I then distressed the edges of the papers. I adhered them onto the base afterwhich I added the embellishments. I glazed the surfaces of the embellishments with metallic acrylic paint. I stamped some text onto the background as well. I stamped the sentiment onto a black board paper and affixed it onto the card. I added a crystal as a finishing touch.

This is what the inside looks like. I adhered a piece of patterned paper whose edges I also distressed. 

I still have several projects in progress. I don't know when I'll be able to finish them. I'm super busy these days. But I'll put them up once done. 

Thanks for looking! I hope you have a great week!
