Birthday bear & his pinata – VIDEO – create a fun background with embossing paste

Hello everyone, It#s Lesley here, and I am gatecrashing the Heffy Doodle blog today with a fun video! This birthday card features the sweet bear from Beary Big Heart, and the sentiment from Happy Snappy Crocs and I have paired it up with the Pinata stamp from Lawn Fawn. Doesn’t he look like he is having a fun time?!

In the video I am sharing how to create this card from start to finish, including how to add a pop of colour to some boring old while embossing paste, and how you can use this with stencils to create fun dimensional backgrounds.

I have used sentiments from the Happy Snappy Crocs stamp set, and used my MISTI so i could stamp them a few times to build up the colours. I wanted to bring in the other colours in the card, for example the pink in the pinata.

 

Let’s take a look at the video – and i would love it if you would leave me a comment telling me what would you put into your pinata? Do you have a favourite candy?
