Today I'm sharing a birthday card of a dragon flying in the sky blowing out birthday candles. I mixed the My Favorite Things Magical Dragons, Mama Elephants Carnival Toppers, and Lawn Fawn dies for this magical flyby birthday card.
I stamped the images from the My Favorite Things Magical Dragons and Mama Elephants Carnival Toppers stamp sets on Bristol Smooth Cardstock with Simon Says Stamp Intense Black Ink and colored in the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. I fussy cut the images, cutting the flames from several of the candles so they look like they've been blown out. I traced around the cut edge of all the fussy cut images for a finished look.
The background pieces were die cut from smooth white cardstock, vellum, and black cardstock using the Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle Dies and Puffy Cloud Borders Dies.
I applied Squeezed Lemonade and Twisted Citron Distress Inks to the background using the Mini Ink Blending Tool. I layered the vellum and white cardstock cloud borders over the background and stamped a greeting from the My Favorite Things Magical Dragons on the white cloud border.
I assembled the scene as shown and finished the card with frames adhered one on top of another, finishing with the black frame and added a scattering of Pretty Pink Posh Iridescent Star Confetti.
