Addicted to Stamps and More! Challenge #483

Time for a new challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More! This will be our final challenge for 2024 as we're taking a bit of a break. We'll be back January 14, 2025.

Here's my birthday card

I actually made this card with a recipient in mind. We're going to be travelling in 2025 and I'm letting him know specifics with this card. Here's the inside of the card.

For the front of the card, I used Unity Stamps' Kit of the Month for 6/18 - We Can Rise set. I stamped the luggage with Versafine Onyx Black ink on 100 lb bristol. I added color with distress inks - ground espresso, gathered twigs, rusty hinge, brushed corduroy, salty ocean, weathered wood, mowed lawn, ripe persimmon, peacock feathers. I smooshed the ink on a plastic place mat and picked up the color with a paint brush and a little water. I let the ink dry and then die cut with a My Favorite Things Inside & Out Stitched Rectangle STAX die-namics die. The sentiment using Papertrey Ink's Keep It Simple: Birthday stamp set was stamped on a brown A2 card panel. I adhered the focal image onto the panel with double-sided tape, which was then adhered to a white A2 card base also with double-sided tape. I stamped the sentiment from the Unity Stamp set on the inside and with a red pen, added the "get" and "!" to complete my birthday card.

We'd love to see your birthday cards in our gallery. We'll see you in the new year!
