I've made an unashamedly retro birthday card for my unashamedly retro husband, colouring the cassette tape (probably an 80s mix!) with my Promarkers. Unfortunately, the colouring looks a little flat in the photos, it looks better in reality.
I used temporary adhesive to stick the panel with the coloured image and computer generated sentiment to the card front, before matting, then used two Sheena Douglass stencils, Graphic Equalizer and Pop Dotty, along with Distress Inks in Barn Door and Hickory Smoke, which I applied through the stencils with Cut 'n' Dry foam. I then removed the front panel, matted it onto black card, and stuck it to the card front with foam tape for dimension.
