Happy Birthday Creator - Numbers by Elin

Hi, crafty friends. I have a fun birthday card to share today, featuring the Happy Birthday Creator – Numbers stamp set from Rachelle Anne Miller.

The set includes the numbers from 0 to 9, as well as accent images. I created a background from the numbers, and added flowers, a bird and a few other things.


I chose a very limited amount of Copic markers and colored the number in. I didn’t do any blending, this is all flat color. I added a little bit of shadow to the numbers and colored the flowers and small critters in the same colors, which is why the bird is light green and the bee is red and pink instead of the traditional yellow and black.


I adhered my panel directly to a card base. I also stamped and white heat embossed a sentiment from the Bitty Birthday Wishes stamp set from My Favorite Things onto True Black cardstock from Papertrey Ink. I added some dimension behind the sentiment strip, adhered it to the card and finished off with sequins from the Starry Night mix from Little Things from Lucy’s Cards.


The little bit of lift behind the sentiment makes it stand out even more. It also helps that it’s black. I paired the card with an envelope from Altenew. The Pink Diamond color matches the light pink in my coloring.


Very very simple color palette for this one.
