Celebrating Birthdays -Two Cards

Hello and welcome!  I have 2 birthday cards for you made with some new products I recently purchased at Simon Says Stamp, plus one item from The Greetery.

First up is a card made with watercolor paper colored with Leisure Arts watercolor markers, then die cut with a cover die from Altenew.  I cut it in white to and then inlaid the watercolor pieces into the white die cut, added it to a white card base and added the sentiment from Simon Says Stamp.

Here's another look at my card:

My 2nd card was made with a a coaster die from The Greetery, and a new to me stencil from Simon Says Stamp.  I've linked my supplies below, including the ink colors I used with the stencil.

This was my first time to use "Pixie Spray" from Thermoweb.  I had heard a lot of people really liked it for stenciling but had not been able to get any.  And then, I unexpectedly won a great prize from Simon Says Stamp FB group, that included a can of the spray!  Lucky me - and everyone was right - it is AWESOME!  Here's a closer look at my 2nd card:

I hope you enjoyed my two bday cards - I always need them for my stash!

Thanks for stopping by!
