Collage

A collage background stamp is a great start to create this type of card front, especially if you find this style of card design challenging, as I do. As done previously, all of the images were stamped on the card front and left to dry before the doily image was stamped and heat embossed. Colouring with Distress Inks followed. I framed the Happy Birthday sentiment to make sure that it did not get lost in the card layout.
