Another House Mouse Challenge Entry!

I decided to do another House Mouse card since I needed a birthday card! I used Poppin Good Birthday and this card will be an Anything Goes entry on House-Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge (HMFMC190).
I wanted to try a background technique using Distress Inks that I had seen on UTube. I love how it turned out. I colored the image with Copic Markers and added a little Glossy Accents to the eyes, nose, and candle flames, then attached the image to the Distress Ink background with mounting squares. I tied coordinating floss onto the background piece. I stamped the sentiment from a set of Fiskars sentiment stamps. I stamped the white cardbase with the same Distress Inks using Stampin Up Gorgeous Grunge.  Last I mounted the distress ink background piece onto the cardstock base with mounting squares and added some sequin stars as a finishing touch.

Also entered in Simon Says Anything Goes Challenge
