The nephew Liam celebrates his 21st birthday! Where does the time go?
I made a card using his favourite football team colours - black, white & teal (Port Power)
For the Cardfront, Bubbles were stenciled using my home-made stencil with
Spellbinders Circle Dies and randomly placed & coloured using
blending brushes with Blue, Grey & Black Distress Inks. The outer
border was coloured with Copics.
Sugar Pea 'Champagne bottle & glasses' were stamped & die cut, then
coloured in with Copics and highlighted with Kindy Glitz &
Dimensional Magic, Extra bubble blended & handrwitten '21' added to the cardfront with 3D foam dots.
Honey Bee 'Bitty Buzzwords' Sentiment 'happy' stamped directly onto front of card, 'birthday' die cut from black cardstock, mounted onto white shadow, then added to the cardfront with 3D foam dots.
Gems added for a final touch of bling!
Inside the card I made a pocket for some money - stamped with VersaMark.

Thanks Cathy C for coming to MTTC!! Your card is fairly close to having blues, neutrals and metallics. :) Your nephew is a lucky young man to have a thoughtful auntie make him a personalized card for his birthday. Best wishes to him! Please come back again for this theme and future ones! --Becca/DT
