A Bright Clean and Simple Birthday Card

The Clarity Club die from March 2022 (#39) is a really versatile mandala die which comes in three parts and cuts five shapes in total. These can be used individually or in combination to create quick and easy but classy looking card. You can see the first card I made HERE. For the second card, I used the smallest die multiple times to create a bright panel card.
Die cut the innermost die five times from Clarity stencil card.



Colour each piece with Festive Berries, Carved Pumpkin, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn and Salty Ocean Distress Oxides respectively. Add clear embossing powder to each piece and heat emboss. Press the mandalas face down into Versamark ink and heat emboss a second time with clear powder.



Use a score board to add embossed lines 3.5cm, 4cm, 8cm and 8.5cm from the bottom of the front of a 7” x 7” white card blank.
Add the yellow mandala into the centre of the panel created by the embossed lines.
Add the rest of the mandalas either side of the first.
To finish, add Happy Birthday below the mandala panel in Nocturne Versafine Clair ink using the Entwined Sentiments stamp.

Dear Sarah
I never cease to be amazed at your fabulous designs - I wish I could 'find' my style like you have.
By the way, I'm an idiot!! When I commented last time about what colours you used and you advised it was all there - I realised there are links at the bottom of each post. So I'm an idiot for not seeing them.
Thank you so many times over.
Love

Gorgeous card, I just assumed you cut them out of different coloured card - not inked them ! this is definitely doable I reckon for me ….. Love your designs x Jackie x
