Sing Happy Birthday

It was my son's partner's birthday last month. I wanted to make her a card that was a bit personal and as she is a singer I thought this stamp set from Visisble Image fitted the bill perfectly.

I found a pretty gelliplate background that I had made some time previously and stamped directly on it. I enhanced the colour on the dress with Copics Some black glitter strips round the edge finished it off. I'm pleased to say she loved it!

NBUS

NBUS and Gelli Plate.

 Well this is the third week of Darnell's extended NBUS challenge. For those of you who don't know what NBUS is, it stands for Never Before Used Stuff! This week the optional extra is to use bubble wrap.

Now I have had a Gelli Plate for over two years now and it has never come out of the box it arrived in!Time to try it out. As it ws the first time I'd has a play and I was running out of time I stuck to a simple use of it, one colour and bubble wrap. I really liked the effect and thought it would make a great background for this Penny Black die, another NBUS.
