For this week’s Global Design Project, we get to CASE the talented, Mikaela Titheridge. I’m using Mikaela’s pastel colors for a “clean & simple” birthday card.
I began by creating a stencil with a Stylish Shapes Die (second, largest circle) and Vellum Cardstock. Holding the stencil in place with my hand, I applied the colors (Balmy Blue, Lemon Lolly, and Pretty In Pink) to Basic White Cardstock.
Pastel Circles Birthday
Next, I used the same Textured Notes Die, as Mikaela, to cut the stenciled cardstock.
Before attaching my circles to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, I stamped balloons and “happy birthday” in Memento Black Ink. These stamps are in the Spring Corners Stamp Set. To complete my “clean & simple” birthday card, I added three, pretty, Rainbow Dots in matching pastel colors.
