Confetti Celebration and Gorgeous Grunge with Large Letter Framelits Card using PPA310

We have a big birthday in our house this week and I thought this weeks Pals Paper Arts Sketch fitted what I had in mind perfectly. I was recently reminded that the Brick embossing folder is perfect for male/boy cards so I bought it with my son's card in mind and paired it with colour from our Regals colour family. 


I started the card with a piece of watercolour paper and with my Tip Top Taupe ink I pushed the lid of the ink pad to get a pool of ink onto the lid and wet my watercolour piece and with my Aqua Painter put a light wash of colour all over the piece and dried it with my Heat Tool. Next I stamped the texture stamp from the Timeless Textures stamp set in both full Tip Top Taupe ink and stamped off, I also added paint splatters from Gorgeous Grunge with Cajun Craze ink also with some stamped off. Using the Big Shot I embossed the watercolour piece with the Brick wall embossing folder and cut the 12 using the Large Laters Framelits from Crushed Curry card stock. I finished off the embossed piece by taking the Aqua Painter and Tip Top Taupe ink nd paint in the grout lines of the bricks and added some stars in Always Artichoke ink from the Confetti Celebrations Stamp Set. Also using the Confetti celebrations stamp set I stamped the YAY star in Island Indigo ink and "It's YOUR day" in Always Artichoke ink with on Whisper White card stock, I cute out the star with scissors and punch the word with the Duet Banner Punch and added sponged with some Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze ink. I created a base for my 12 using my 1 3/4" and 1 1/2" circle punches with Cajun Craze and Vellum card stock and clued them all tother flat using TomBow Multi Purpose Adhesive. I adhered the 12 piece using our Foam Adhesive strips which layers just perfectly higher than our Stampin' Dimensionals which I used to adhere the star and finally the banner directly to the background. I adhered the Watercolour piece to an Island Indigo card base with Fast Fuse to help combat the small amor of warping I had. As a final touch I carefully added Clear Wink of Stellar to the 12 to make it pop.
