ADDICTED TO STAMPS AND MORE - #523 - BIRTHDAYS





It's been a while since I used my Visible Image stamps so I had a dig through what I had and remembered this lovely heart stamp called Follow Your Heart which I thought would be perfect for our challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More this week which is birthdays. 

I stamped the image first then masked it off to stencil behind it with an old dotted stencil and Distress Ink in Squeezed Lemonade and Ripe Persimmon.  These colours remind me of old sweets we used to have as children called Fruit Salad! I used the same colours to colour in parts of the stamp.  The sentiment is from an Anita Jeram set called Birthday Wishing and I thought it was great to use on a birthday card. That reminds me that I should also get that whole set out and have another play with it as it's great for birthdays too.

I'm adding this into the following:
