I made a shaped birthday card for my nephew in Colorado. I used the Hero Arts U.S. Map Background and fussy cut around it after heat embossing Colorado State with leaf embossing powder and the rest of the country with wave embossing powder. I used an aqua brush and Neon Chartreuse ink to highlight Colorado State and added a die cut foil star. I masked a cat face from Nine Lives by Paper Smooches for the centre of the star and I created a custom sentiment using Hero Arts Lisa's Mix & Match Sentiments and It's Your Day.
One winner will be chosen at random to win a $50 gift voucher to the awesome Simon Says Stamp Store!
I hope you will play along with us this week!
