Kitty Bee Designs - Happy Birthday Laundry Card!

Hi friends! I'm back today to share a sweet little birthday card with you using the adorable Kitty Bee Designs digi stamp! I don't usually do clean and simple, but today I really wanted to focus on this sweet little image and a Distress Oxide background, and I really do love how it turned out! I used blending foam and sponged on Tumbled Glass, Shaded Lilac and Spun Sugar in a diagonal pattern on Bristol Cardstock. It is a smooth cardstock that is thick enough to withstand some added water. I then spritzed with water and let dry partially before finishing with a heat gun. The Distress Oxides blend beautifully and react with water to create an instant cool background!

I used Prismacolor and Hobby Colour markers, both alcohol based, to colour in the image, which is printed on a 65lb white cardstock base. I then used a Kaisercraft stitched circle die to cut him out and added some white gel pen highlights.

I wrapped some white and purple baker's twine around the background and then layered the image over top, adding foam tape for dimension. I stamped the Lawn Fawn sentiment with purple Archival Ink and added some SpiegelMom Scraps sequins. (don't forget to use the code KARLA15 to save 15% off your purchases at the SMS shop!)

Inside, I added the rest of the sentiment and a few more sequins. If you do a simple Google or Pinterest search for 'laundry quotes' you'll find tons of sentiments you could use!
