Today I will share a birthday card for a man with you:

Step by step instructions:

Ink up the delicate leaf branch stamp with Memento green colors: bamboo leaves and cottage ivy. Spritz it with a little bit of water out of a minimister before stamping of. This will blend the colors slightly. Do this twice (at the top and bottom of the card)
Stamp it again of masking tape and cut it out and set aside.

Color in the leaves with distress ink crushed olive with a waterbrush. Once dry adhere your mask on the top leaves. Start blending your background with distress ink scattered straw. The more you go to the inside of the card the less color you use.
Replace your mask onto the bottom leave and do the same.

Stamp of the wood texture with distress ink gathered twigs and the left and right hand site, to create a border. Go around the borders with your blending tool and gathered twigs to create depth.

To add more dimension to the background I stamped the mulitlingual happy birthday with distress ink scattered straw. Use your mask again!

On the banner I stamped only the dutch sentiment of the multilingual Happy Birthday. You can do that by masking off the other parts of the stamp with tape. Ink it up and remove the tape before stamping.

I have used the newly released Magenta stamps:
