DD7ABC14M: we are on the letter M. The double challenge was to make a Mother's Day card which you can see that I skipped. My M is the stamp set: Marquee Messages. This card was inspired by this pin: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/221661612889107810/
though I did change sizes and other things.
I stamped the focal image with Versamark and heat embossed in white. I stamped again on Pumpkin Pie and heat embossed, fussy cut, and filled in the bulbs with white gel pen. I stamped one last time on yellow this time first with Versamark ink and then, before stamping, in Night of Navy and clear embossing. I did the same with Birthday.
The card base is 5 1/2 x 11. The strip that the image is on is 4 x 8 1/2. Fun card to make - I think my nephew will get this as orange is a favorite color of his.
Thanks for looking!

Great card. Filling in each of those bulbs with your white gel must have taken you some time. I probably would have smeared it all over. I like your colors and it fits the masculine category quite well. I think your nephew is going to love it!

I've seen this stamp used many times, but not quite like this card....I'm really excited about what you've done with the colors, the card design, the pretty patterned papers, etc.! What a FUN birthday card~

What a magnificent card you have made here Catherine. I love this z-fold design with these wonderful marquee images you embossed so beautifully onto such fun colorful papers. Your nephew is going to flip when he opens this wonderful card up! ~Karen.
