I needed a birthday card and I just wanted to play in my studio. So, how can I do both? By making an oversized card myself!
A great bonus of making the card, I was both happy when I made it and happy when I gave it.
I used things like Deli Paper and washi tape for this quick painted card.
Check out the video to see how easy it is to use Portfolio crayons with a stencil!
Watch A Deli Paper Painted Birthday Card on YouTube.
I used Portfolio crayons right through the stencil – love the imperfections that it created! I will be using these crayons more with stencils.
Supplies Used
- Vintage Typewriter Alphabet stencil
- Fineline Applicator
- High Flow Paints (for in the fineline applicator)
- Portfolio Crayons
- Deli Paper -Kabnet Wax from Sam’s Club- deli paper is dry waxed paper used to wrap sandwiches at a deli- but here is a link to my new favorite deli paper that I found since filming this video: Deli Paper

So cool to use the washi tape as the candles! The yellow high flow gives the perfect touch to the cake 🙂
