Twist and pop card

A friend turned 40 last week and this weekend she had a great party to celebrate. We were some friends who had gathered for a present and I made this card to go with it. A really fun card to make.

One layer card

I have not been so good at blogging my cards lately, the few I have manager to do.... But now I had an idea in my head that I really wanted to try out, so here is finally something new from me :-)

I used my new happy birthday die on masking tape and used the diecut as a mask. I then inked over it with distress ink. Splattered some water on it to make it more interesting. I am very happy with how it turned out. I think it's a happy card and the colours make me think of springtime.

I'm entering these challenges:
