Happy Birthday Son

This became a birthday card for our youngest son.
Die cut a topper from Clarity stencil card using the 6” nested squares die and a mat from black card using the corresponding nested squares picot die.
Add Tea Dye and Pumice Stone Oxides to a blending mat, spritz with water and drag the topper through the ink.
Repeat with Pumice stone Oxide alone.
Add Old Paper Oxide in the same way and dry thoroughly.
Blend some Tea Dye Oxide through the September 2021 Clarity club stencil (#88) in places.
Repeat using Pumice Stone Oxide.
Add Old Paper Oxide in the same manner.
Add further stencilling in Ground Espresso Oxide and blend the same colour all round the edges of the topper.
Finish with Black Soot Oxide in the same way.
Stamping directly onto the front of a 7” x 7” white card blank, add stamping in the same Distress Oxide colours as before, using stamps from Sam’s Don’t be such a Square stamp set.
Mat up the topper and add it to the front of card.
To finish, add some of the Art Nouveau Sentiments in Nocturne Versafine Clair ink. 

I later added son using Barbara's Relations in the same ink.
