I simply stamped this image with memento black ink and them embossed it with clear embossing powder to give it a bit of shine . I then coloured this image with copics  and fussy cut the image. I planned to mount this image on a dark background mimicking the night sky .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So I chose a navy blue card stock and embossed some fireworks images on this card stock with gold embossing powder. I also distress the navy blue yardstick with some black soot distress oxide ink to give it a darker look. I finally stayed and embossed the sentiment on the card , embellished the card with some sequins after mounting the bride and groom image with some double sided foam tape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.craftadda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG_9567-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-124802\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the second card , I used the stamp set Ganpati Bappa . For this card I simple stamped the image and colored the image with copics. I then used a masking paper stamped the same image on it fussy cut the image and pasted the masking paper on top of the image to cover the image completely . <br><br>I then used a stencil on top of the masked image and did some ink blending . Once I was happy with the ink blending I peeled of the masking paper to reveal a lovely image of Ganpat against a stencilled background. I finally adhered some sequins to give finished look to the card .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.craftadda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG_9555-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-124803\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For my third and final card , I simply used a stencil and some inks . the stencil I used for this card is called 4 leaf lace . I used some inks and did some basic ink blending. The card is simple and one layered . I also added a few sequins\/jewels before stamping the sentiment &#8220;you are amazing&#8221; on the card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.craftadda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG_9557-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-124804\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I hope you like these cards and I hope I inspired you to try out these techniques as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"here-are-few-pictures-of-my-3-ethnic-cards-together\"><\/span>Here are few pictures of my 3 ethnic cards together :<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.craftadda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG_9546-2.jpg\" alt=\"3 Ethnic Cards Tutorial\" class=\"wp-image-124805\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.craftadda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/IMG_9549-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-124806\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"do-check-out-the-youtube-tutorial-of-making-these-3-ethnic-cards-here\"><\/span>Do check out the YouTube tutorial of making these 3 ethnic cards here:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"nv-iframe-embed\"><iframe title=\"Three Ethnic Cards Tutorial\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/q2LMIKhZV3s?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
