For my card today I used the Misti Stamping Tool to perfectly align the greeting stamps and candle stamp from the Big Birthday Wishes Stamp Set (available in the April Kit or sold individually).
To create the stamped rectangle panel for my card, I die cut a piece of cardstock from the kit using a Stitched Rectangles Die. Using the Misti Stamping Tool, I stamped two of the greetings from the Big Birthday Wishes Stamp Set using Versamark Ink and heat embossed them with gold embossing powder.
Next, I stamped the candle from the Birthday Wishes Stamp Set using the Hero Arts Pink to Red Ombre Ink, Butter to Orange Ombre Ink and Mint to Green Ombre Ink. I stamped the candle flames with the Butter to Orange Ombre Ink, added the Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Marker over each and finished with some Glossy Accents.
I attached the stamped panel to a piece of patterned gold foil paper from the card kit (trimmed to A2 size - 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"), adhered the panels to a card base and finished the inside of the card with another stamped and embossed greeting.
I love how the gold embossing on the greeting picks up the gold foil on the patterned kraft paper!
