After stamping my image on some scrap Neenah white card stock, I colored it using my prismacolor and copic markers before stippling some Tim Holtz tumbled glass and mowed lawn distress ink around the edges then layering. Once that was finished, I took my card base and dry embossed only half of the card using an old Tim Holtz tree bark embossing folder with my Big Shot© before adding a scrap of designer paper to create my border. The final touches were adding brads to the layered image, and adhering using some pop up glue dots, I highlighted the Happy Birthday using a black gel pen before taking a fingernail and distressing the edges of the panel. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out since I made it while dealing with a migraine and sinus infection/bronchitis.
