Birthday Cake

Wouldn't you love to have a birthday cake this big!!! These are Dee Gruenig's stamps and she has some wonderful techniques that she showcased at her last class in Albuquerque last fall. The stamp is colored with blending blocks which she sells in her collection. It is 4 colors in one stamp box. The stamp is then spritzed with water to give the watercolor look. I used a stencil type brush to add a little color on the edges with dry ink. I then used an aqua-flo pen to splatter some color from a set of water color paints. The inside was edged using a blending block and then stamped with the stamp.
