It is Mr P's birthday today and I've made him something a little bit different for his birthday this year, usually he would get something with a cute Penny Black image on it. I have been enjoying playing with Brushos and those images just don't go with the lovely backgrounds. I have recently bought some Bister which is very similar to Brushos in how you use it but it is more predictable as to what colour you are going get. I have only got two colours so far - blue and brown and they work beautifully together.
I used a Papermania Wellington stamp which I watercoloured first with Derwent watercolour pencils and then masked the image so that I could make the background with the Bister.
The Happy Birthday sentiment is from a Stampin' Up set (Butterfly Basics) and the Husband sentiment is from the same Wellington set as the bear stamp (by Papermania).
I wish I knew where the lovely blue/brown organza ribbon had come from it, it was my last piece and a perfect match for the card. The bling hearts are from Poundland.
