Once the watercolor had almost dried I applied a few gilding flakes to give a little shimmer , and once it was adhered , I brushed off the extra gilding flakes with a stencil brush . Once the panel was dry , I stamped the the zodiac sign stamp on the panel with some black archival ink  along with a happy birthday sentiment stamp.<\/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\/07\/IMG_9594.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-125204\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the second card,  I made a simple card with the sweet love stamp set . I stamped the image of the boy, and after coloring the image with comics simply fussy cut the image and pasted it withs some foam tape on a stencilled panel . I used the heartfelt stencil along with some tumbled glass distress oxide .<\/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\/07\/IMG_9585-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-125209\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the last and final card I made a simple floral card . I only wanted to use the image of the flower buds , hence I masked the image of the full flower and  I stamped the bud twice on the stem with Versamark ink . I then embossed it and copic colored the image before adhering  it on a distressed watercolored panel and finally on a caramel brown note 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\/07\/IMG_9587.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-125210\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are few pictures of my 3 cards together :<\/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\/07\/IMG_9581.jpg\" alt=\"Simple Birthday Cards\n\n\" class=\"wp-image-125211\" 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\/07\/July-2021-Sneek-peak-.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-125212\" title=\"\"><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do check out the YouTube tutorial of making these 3 simple birthday cards here:<\/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 Simple Birthday Cards\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MjcUftp-k4k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
