Happy Birthday Old Chap Card by Andrea Shell

Happy Birthday, Old Chap!

Today we are sharing a charming English-themed birthday card by Andrea! She features the cute kitty wearing a Welsh Guard costume standing in front of some London landmarks from our Newton Dreams of London Stamp Set. She colors the images and uses the coordinating Newton Dreams of London Die Set to cut them out. For the scene, she uses our Hills & Grass Stencil for the hill and adds clouds into the sky with our Cloudy Sky Stencil and some white texture paste.

She layers the scene over a background that was created by stamping a bunch of the smaller images to create a fun themed pattern. The sentiment "Happy Birthday, Old Chap" is also from the Newton Dreams of London Stamp Set. She embossed the sentiment in white onto a banner that was cut out using our Frames & Flags Die Set.

Check out the close-up photo below to see all the details. She even added flocking to the hat on the kitty to give it a fun fuzzy texture. What a cool idea! To see more details on how this is done, you can head over to Andrea's blog today.
