Birthday Gnome
Hey
Welcome to my blog today
Made this little card with one of the new gnomes from
Where we are Celebrating Gnome-Vember !!!
I punched out a circle on the white cardstock then ran it through my embosser - Stamped the Gnome onto the circle and coloured him in.
stressed the edges.
Layered onto some blue DSP - offset the stamped gnome circle
bit of ribbon and a happy birthday.

Whoops !!!
Welcome to my blog today !
Love this new stamp Whoop
(every time I read it I get that song stuck in my head - but that was Whoomp there it is LOL)
I used some scrap paper for the back design - splattered with some gold from my Pesca pen - then layered all together
Next up is another I made using the Overlapping leaves background
With this one I embossed on some wordy paper and fussy cut out one leaf
Layered on top of the embossed background
Thought this was more of a masculine looking card - would be great for birthday wishes
