Hi friends! I had so much fun with this card today. I used the super fun Wishing Mandala stamp set from Birch Press Design. It was so much fun to stamp and then to color. I started in the center of the pattern and then worked my way out in rainbow order with various shades of Copic markers.
After my coloring was done, I die cut it using a stitched rectangle die and then matted it on some black card stock and adhered it to my top folding card base.
I then stamped and die cut the sentiment which is from the Just Because set, also from Birch Press Design. I love that there are matching dies available as they allow you to still add a sentiment on a card like this where there really wouldn't be a great place to stamp one.
I stamped the sentiment in black ink, onto white card stock and then die cut it out. I then ran the die through my machine a few more times to add dimension. I finished by die cutting it one more time with black card stock so that I could slightly offset the sentiment to help it pop off the page more and not get lost on the busy background.

You can't really tell in the photo but I added some Glossy Accents to each of the small circles that are inside the green sections.
As always, I truly appreciate you stopping by and for those that leave comments, extra love to you.

This is so pretty, Alanna! The mandala looks like a fun one to color and it's so lovely in rainbow! I like how you added the detail to the sentiment, too. Great thinking. Wonderful card, thanks for sharing! Hugs!
