With the foam ink blending tool, pounce in the watermark resist ink.
Remove the stencil and clean it.
Next, brayer on ink from the Kaleidacolor pad.
Repeat each color several times.
Stay in your lane so you don't get the colors mixed up.
Rotate the paper to change color order.
Once you have covered the paper with ink, give it a good buff with a clean, dry paper towel.
Now tape the flourishes stencil over the colored card.
With a clean foam ink blending tool, pounce in the gold ink.
Remove the stencil and clean it.
The Brilliance will dry on the gloss paper.
Layer the card on card stock.
You are done with your first birthday card of the year!
