Good morning! I'm back yet again with another card today using the fabulous Sending Happiness Release from Simon Says Stamp! I recently picked up some of the Karin Brushmarkers I have been seeing used lately - so hard to resist a new toy, don't you think? So I put them to use on this card to add a bright and happy pop of color, and play with a bit of blending of the markers!
I started off by stamping the big happy from the new Happy Days stamp set 3 times on some Bristol Smooth watercolor paper using my MISTI and Versafine Ink.
I then added two different shades of each color to each word - a lighter shade at the top, and a deeper shade at the bottom, and blended them together with a wet paintbrush in the center. I also added a bit of gray for shadows around the outside of the words - hard to see in the photos though I'm afraid! I rounded a corner, and adhered it to a gray cardbase with the same corner rounded as well.
I added some supporting sentiments from the stamp set, a few sparkly jewels, a few of the images from the same stamp set scattered around the bottom, and a good thick coat of Glossy Accents over the large happy words for some shine!
