Rupert Banner

Before printing this digi-stamp I inserted the text "Penblwydd Hapus" (Welsh for "Happy Birthday") on the banner. I then printed it off at smaller than the given size onto 300gsm Super Smooth white cardstock. I coloured it in using my ProMarkers. I used dies to cut out both the coloured in digi-stamp and also to cut out various panels and layers out of white linen textured cardstock and some paper from a kit in my crafty stash. I took an 8" square Crafty Bob card and coloured around the edges with one of the ProMarkers I'd used on the digi-stamp to make it blend in, and also went round the outside of the die-cut digi panel with the same colour ProMarker. I built up the layers of die-cut background panels I'd cut, using fingerlift tape to attach some layers and 1mm deep, double sided, foam tape to attach other layers. I took a large flower and some smaller glitter card and gem flowers from the same kit as I'd got the backgrounds from, as well as cutting a few small ones from the backgorunds I'd used. And attached these to the card using glue gel. I finished off by adding some tiny midget gems both in the centre of the die-cut flowers and at the corners of my card.

This is a very versatile digi as Rupert can be made to say anything you want, from Congratulations to Get Well, as well as for a birthday card like I've done.
