Spellbinders Clear Stamp and Die of the Month for February 22 - Birthday Card

 For this particular card, I used the Spellbinders Clear Stamp and Die Kit of the Month for February 2022,  For all of the February clubs available, please click here.   It is typewriter themed and I decided to use one of the included sentiments to make this a birthday card.  

I started with an A2 white base card.  To it I added a piece of purple cardstock which measures 5.25 x 4 inches and was cut with my paper trimmer.  I also cut a piece of decorative striped purple cardstock from my stash to measure 3.75 x 5. inches also cut with the paper trimmer.  These were both adhered to the base card using Easy Glide Adhesive Tape Runner.  I the wanted a decorative oval design behind my centerpiece.  I hot foiled the Essential Due Lines Oval Glimmer plate with Lavender Petal Foil and my Glimmer Hot Foil System to some white cardstock.  I then centered my Elegant Ovals die over the foiled lines and cut it out using my Platinum 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine.  Next the typewriter, three roses and the sentiment were stamped onto white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.  I then colored the typewriter using cool grey copic markers and the roses were done using pinks and greens for the leaves.  The stems of leaves were stamped onto white cardstock using some green ink from my stash.  They were all cut out using the coordinating dies set and my Platinum 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine.

The sentiment piece was then inserted into the slit in the top of the typewriter and glued in place using Bearly Art Liquid Glue.  It was then popped up onto the oval using Foam Squares.  Next I added the rose at the top and the two sprigs to the bottom right corner using the liquid glue.  The two pink roses were attached at the bottom right corner atop the sprigs using foam squares.  

For a final touch, I added three purple enamel drops from my stash to finish the card off.  I really like how it turned out.  I hope you do too!
