Quick and Easy No Layer Card

 Good Morning, Stampers!

I had 15 minutes to get a quick birthday card created. No time for layers, fussy cutting or coloring lots of images - it had to be a no-layer, #simplestamping card! These little mini candles and sentiment come from the Sweet Jar stamp set. I stamped the candles and sentiment using Tuxedo Black ink and used a blender pen to add a little color to the candles. So easy and so quick! I even had time to add a little Wink of Stella shimmer to the flames! 

SU!pplies:

Stamps: Sweet Jar

Ink: Tuxedo Black, Fresh Freesia, Bubble Bath. Balmy Blue, Highland Heather

Paper: Thick Basic White
