It's pretty much my dream in life to be on the design team for The Greeting Farm, so when I get the opportunity to do a guest DT spot, you should hear the squeals of delight... ok, maybe you shouldn't. ;)
For today's post, I used a retired Big Kit called Hairoscope - while this set isn't available at the moment, it can be requested for a future Farmers Market using the Contact Page on the store site here.

I have a good friend whose birthday is tomorrow, so I decided to make a Pisces birthday card for her! Beth has been a friend of mine since our high school days, and she's just one of those people who knows exactly what to say when you need a kind word or encouragement. I'm grateful for her friendship.
I had a scrap piece of paper that I had previously distressed with Villainous Potion Distress Oxide Ink, so I used that for the die cuts, starting with a waffle edge strip along the top. I used a zodiac wheel stamp for the background, embossing with clear embossing powder before using the ink smooshing technique with Lindy's Magicals in Mystic Crystal Teal on the rest of the background. I stamped the "PISCES" and "BIRTHDAY" directly on the background - the "HAPPY" banner was attached with foam dimensional dots. I die cut the heart constellation and attached that with foam dimensional dots as well. I stamped the Pisces girl with Versafine Black and embossed with clear embossing powder. I colored with Copics, a white gel pen, and glitter. I fussy cut and attached her with foam dimensional tape. I finished it off with some teardrop shaped crystal rhinestone stickers, mimicking water droplets.

I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:
Die Cut Divas - Spring is Coming (Pisces is a Spring birthday!)
Cut it Up #351- Happy Birthday
As You Like It - Favorite Main Color and Why (I love teal/turquoise - it's such a soothing, pretty color and pairs well with so many other colors!)
I Love ProMarkers #602 - Birthday
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday - Make it Cute
AAA Birthday #83- Use Die Cuts
Thanks for looking and I'll be back on March 24 with a new project! Peace.
