Happy Birthday with Foil Frenzy DSP

Today I'm sharing a card I made using the Foil Frenzy DSP.  I really liked this paper when I first saw it in the catalog, then after getting it I didn't like the craft color as much.  So....this is what I did.

I took a piece of the Foil Frenzy( 3 3/4 x 5).  This was the one with the Lemon Lime Twist Chevron pattern.  With the Early Espresso ink pad, I then drug it over the entire piece of DSP.  Direct ink to paper technique.  Now you could use a sponge and get the same effect, but it would take longer.

Die cut the Happy Birthday Thinlits out of the center of the DSP.  Before layering the die cut on top of the Lemon Lime Twist card stock, you need to drag the Early Espresso ink at an angel over the top to give it a light coloring.

Sponge the edges of the large piece of Lemon Lime Twist with Early Espresso.

Another version with the same colors, but the dot pattern.

This one was with the Soft Sky DSP and Island Indigo ink.  Now I tried to layer it with Island Indigo paper but...it didn't match at all.  The craft paper and the ink made it more of a green.  So I layered it with Tranquil Tide.
