A Painted Deli Paper Birthday Card

I needed a birthday card and I just wanted to play in my studio so by making a card myself with deli paper, washi tape, and paint I did both along with a video too!

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.

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