Pastel Colors with Distress Inks and Copic Markers | Unicorn Birthday Card

Oh Unicorns, they seem to be everywhere now a days. Who doesn't love them? When I was little I absolutely loved My Little Pony. Kind of the same as unicorns.... lol =)

For the cloud images I die cut them in Bristol and vellum cardstock. Then used distress inks in various colors to blend ink on to the Bristol.The background is also Bristol and I blended Tumbled Glass in the middle section where the cloud dies do not reach.

 Then I stamped the Unicorns on Bristol smooth again, using a MFT mirror stamp I was able to get the mirrored image of the unicorn so that they could be facing one another. Then heat embossed both in white. I colored the unicorns using light shades of Copic Sketch markers. It is not recommended to use Copic markers with heat embossing because you may ruin the tip..... I've had no issues but use your products how you feel comfortable using them please.

 The mane/tail of the unicorns are coated in shimmer then glossy accents over the top. The inside of the card is die cut with 2 sizes of scallop rectangle dies and stamped with coordinating stamps from the same set as the unicorns.
