Here is a birthday card I made - I like how this turned out!
I started by brayering rainbow ink onto a glossy panel and then stamped a stem silhouette repeatedly. I mounted the glossy panel on purple cardstock and affixed to the card (white card base covered with yellow cardstock). I stamped the birthday sentiment in black and embellished with a metallic 3-D butterfly sticker and three green gems. Here are the supplies used:
- Stamp: Stem Silhouettes (Stampin' Up!), sentiment (Studio G)
- Ink: Kaleidacolor Creole Spice, StazOn Jet Black
- Cardstock: Recollections White Card Base: Domtar
- Accents: Gems, butterfly sticker (dollar store)

I think your card turned out awesome! I brayed something awhile back and haven't used it yet! I do love that technique! Perhaps this is the inspiration I needed!
