Funky Fossil "Broken Mosaic" Stencil Card

I've made a quick birthday card today using a four shades of Distress Oxide Inks (Tumbled Glass, Shabby Shutters, Speckled Egg and Iced Spruce), through a Funky Fossil Stencil called "Broken Mosaic".  

I rubbed over the image with an anti-static bag then positioned the "Happy Birthday" stamps, which are part of a Hobby Art Ltd set called "Greetings for friends - CS158D", stamped in Wow! Clear Embossing Ink and then coated with Wow! Metallic Gold Super Fine embossing powder.  I then heat set the sentiment.

Funky Fossil Butterfly Wreath Birthday Card

I seem to have a few birthday cards needed for August.  This one is for next week. 

I stamped the Hobby Arts Lts sentiment, from their "Greetings for friends" set using Versafine Clair "Purple Delight" ink.  I then coated it in Wow! clear embossing powder and heat set to give a lovely glossy sheen.

 I've used the Funky Fossil "Butterfly Wreath' stencil with three shades of Distress Oxide Inks (Worn Lipstick, Picked Raspberry and Wilted Violet) grading the colour from light in the inside to darker on the outer edge (applied with finger daubers).
