Happy Birthday

 

 
For this card I combined many of the great stamps from the gel-a-tins range.  I wanted to create a funky and bright birthday card that would suit a teenager.  I had some new Neon markers and thought that this was the ideal way to give them a try.



Products Used
 
gel-a-tins 'Brick Wall' background stamp
gel-a-tins 'Raindrops Are Falling' stamp set
gel-a-tins 'Stars' set
gel-a-tins 'Mini retro Flakes and Sayings' stamp set
gel-a-tins 'SWAK' stamp set
StazOn ink
Xyron 150 X
Letraset Promarkers 'Neon' set
Shoe Laces
5"x7" Card Blank
 
 
I stamped the 'Brick Wall' onto the blank base card using the StazOn ink


 
The markers worked great with the stamps, just rub across the surface and stamp away.
 
 
The neon combined with the stamps give a graffiti effect.
 
 
 A strip from the neon shoe lace instead of ribbon gives it a little more 'Street Cred'
