My latest video features girl/boy birthday cards for my neighbour’s twins who are turning 9 next week. I used the Cake Walk, Doodle Florals and Timber! stamp sets on these cards. The two cards are almost exactly the same but use different colours. I used Simon Hurley create. reinkers to watercolour all of the images from Cake Walk and Timber! I used the rock ‘n’ roll technique to stamp the layered flowers from Doodle Florals.
For this design, I had to draw a body for Artie the Bear so he wouldn’t be floating in midair. I fussy cut extra trees to fill in the spaces between the stamped trees to hide the missing half of his body. Then I added flowers and embellished them with Rose Pink and Bora Bora pearls from Studio Katia.
Don’t forget to tag all your Simon Hurley create. birthday cards on Instagram or Facebook for your chance to win a Simon Hurley create. prize package!
