TGIFC 131 & INK 146 - Happy Birthday

Hello and welcome back! Today I have a very special birthday card made using the eclipse technique. These cards are all over Pinterest, but this is the first time I've tried it.





The card is an unusual size, because I needed to fit 5 of the large letters on it. Luckily, with the Envelope Punch Board, it's easy to make an envelope to fit any card! I love the look of the popped up letters that let you see a peek of the color underneath.




I wasn't sure how to add the "birthday," but then I thought the copper embossing would be perfect. What do you think?




This card is for the eclipse technique challenge at TGIFC and the autumn challenge at Inkspirational.




Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day!
