Dotty birthday

I am loving my new dies and these 2 are no exception The border and large rings from memory box , and I am trying new techniques combining dies and stamping.

I saw this technique on poppy stamps blog by sue Mcree and thought it was different and looked fun. I used a square  white base card and used the negative of the dies as stencils and a pencil with a rubber on the end for my stamp.I used 3 different inks teal,cocoa and gold and the pencil rubber to make the circles.

Once I had filled the areas with randomly placed dots I glued the die cuts in place.

I finished the card with a die cut happy birthday from Britannia dies in turquoise mirri card.
