Hello crafty friends. It’s Ceal, here. Today I am sharing a Mickey and Minnie Birthday card with you. I am a long time Disney fan and I have a couple Disney sets of Disney characters in my stash.

Skill: Intermediate
Time: 45 Minutes

Directions:

Gather your supplies. You will need a set of fictional characters that you’re a fan of, markers, black ink, colored ink, and a white gel pen.

Step 1:
Stamp the image using black ink. I used VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink.

Step 2:
Stamp the image again on Post-it note paper or masking paper using black ink.

Step 3:
Fussy cut the images out and cover the images that were stamped on the panel. Then using a colored ink blend a circle of ink around the images. I used one of the newest colors of VersaFine Clair, Lemonade.

Step 4:
Remove the mask and color the images with markers. I used the Memento marker, Love Letter.

Step 5:
Using a white gel pen, add polka dots to Minnie’s dress. To finish the card, add a greeting (I went with birthday) and adhere the panel to an A2 card base.

Intro: Brilliance inks blend beautifully and the pearlescent ones create a beautiful shimmer that enhances magical scenes like this one.

Skill Level: Beginner to Intermediate

Time: 1 hour

Directions:

Step 1.

Use a Sponge Dauber to apply Mediterranean Blue Brilliance ink horizontally across the top of a 4” x 5.25” panel of white cardstock. Use a Sponge Dauber to apply Pearlescent Sky Blue Brilliance ink below the darker blue. Use both daubers to create a blended shimmery sky.

Use a Sponge Dauber to apply the Pearlescent Coral Brilliance ink from the Aurora 3-Color Brilliance Ink Pad. Sorry that there’s no photo!

Step 2:

Tape the image panel to the back of the Clouds Stencil.

Using a Sponge Dauber, apply Moonlight White Brilliance ink over the stencil onto the image panel.

Remove the stencil and heat set the ink.

Step 3:

Use magnets to secure the ink-sponged panel approximately .5” from the right edge and 1” from the bottom of the stamping platform.

Position the Cityscape Reflections Stamp facedown along the bottom of the stamping platform.

Ink the stamp with Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink and stamp. Re-ink and stamp again if needed. Remove the stamp and heat set the panel.

Step 4:

Move the image panel so that it’s flush the right and bottom edges of the stamping platform. Secure with magnets.

Position the Silhouette Lady with Umbrella Stamp facedown along the right edge above the cityscape.

Ink the stamp with Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink and stamp. Re-ink and stamp again if needed. Remove the stamp and heat set the panel.

Step 5:

Trim the image panel to 3 7/8” x 5 1/8”.

Use a Sponge Dauber and Mediterranean Blue Brilliance Ink to edge the image panel.

Step 6:

Cut a piece of Raven cardstock to 4” x 5.25”.

Use Tear It! Tape to adhere the image panel to the black cardstock.

Step 7:

Create an A2 Card from White cardstock.

Use a Sponge Dauber to apply Mediterranean Blue Brilliance Ink to the outer .5” of the folded card. Heat set.

Step 8:

Use Tear It! Tape to adhere the image panel to the card.

Adhere the sentiment sticker to finish the card.
