Happy Tag

Hi and welcome back for another Freshly Made Sketch Challenge.  This week the fabulous and talented Jennifer Timko has given us this fantastic sketch.

How versatile is this sketch???

I decided to do a bit of watercoloring with my card this week and came up with this (I flipped the sketch):

The card base is stenciled with translucent embossing paste to add a bit of interest.  To color the tag, I smeared some Crisp Cantaloupe and Summer Starfruit on my craft mat then spritzed with water.  I laid the die-cut watercolor paper into the inky mess and pressed down.  Once the tag dried, I embossed the word "happy" using Pool Party EP then stamped "birthday" using Memento Tuxedo Black.

I cut the little tag hole using Coastal Cabana and tied some Pool Party seam binding ribbon around it.

This card uses the colors from Fab Friday and the tag theme from Seize the Birthday.

If you haven't checked out the divine inspiration from the FMS design team, head on over there now!

Thanks for looking.
