Birthday card and envelope

My friend had her birthday in the beginning of March and I wanted to make her a card.

I love using Distress Inks with blending tool, and adding droplets of water.

First I stamped the image with Archival Ink, and coloured it with my distress ink and water.
I then added some rubber cement on the images and used various distress inks with the blending tool.
I´m quite happy with the outcome of this card :)

A while a go I saw this cool tutorial on Kristina Werner´s (link will take you to her blog) blog about using rubber cement to write down the name, and then use distress ink and blending tool on top. This gives you a really cool effect.
