Parchment Reflection Birthday Card

I stamped on both sides of a piece of clear parchment to create the reflection on this birthday card.
Stamp the smaller rectangle backdrop stamp onto a piece of Clarity parchment in Ocean Reef Artistry ink. Use a brayer to spread the ink then lift some ink off the bottom section of the stamp using crumpled up copy paper before stamping.
Once dry, add the Clarity April 2021 club stamp (#174) over the top in Cobalt Blue Archival ink.
Stamping onto the back of the parchment, add the circle stamp from the Grunge Art stamp set behind the trees in Bluebird Archival ink. Add the club stamp below the first one to create a reflection in the same ink as the 'moon'.
Add the bird stamp from the club set to the front in Cobalt Blue Archival ink.
Trim the parchment close to the edge and add it to a piece of stencil card the same size using a small dark blue brad in each corner.
Mat this onto some dark blue card.
Stamp Happy Birthday in Cobalt Archival ink at the bottom of a 5” x 7” white card blank using a stamp from the Art Nouveau Sentiments.
To finish, add the topper.
