I went all out creating some fun Party themed projects for this release. I thought this set worked perfectly for a young kiddos birthday party as well as Valentines Day. I hope you're inspired by this creation. This birthday card coordinates (hint the popcorn mix) with a yummy treat set I'll be sharing soon. Click on the photo below to purchase the bundle today!

I started out by working on the background. To create it, I pulled out my Gelli Plate and applied some stripes of ivory acrylic paint and added some drops of Denim Distress Oxide ink in a linear fashion so I could spread it horizontally across the page with a paint brush. I placed my cardstock over the panel and lifted the ink. Then I took some leftovers from a "button" project I created on my Silhouette cameo and used that as a stencil for my inked panel. I brushed more acrylic paint over that to allow for a hint of circle pattern over the inked panel.
After creating the background, I splattered it with ivory paint and the denim Distress ink and set it aside to dry. Then I started coloring the Monster. It is so fun creating a unique monster using all the parts and pieces in this Monstrously Awesome set! I settled on this adorable furry monster and got to work printing, cutting out and coloring the image.
I used the following Copic Colors to color this image:
B01, 52, 60; BG13, BG45; C-1, 3; YR02, 16, 61; R05
To finish the card off, I punched a few circles using my 3/4 inch Marvy circle punch then attached the monster with foam squares. I applied the sentiment (that was touched up with Copics) from the Lil' Monster sentiment set and added a little teal bow/button embellishment. I mounted it onto a base of Nectar Stone cardstock. 
Take a peek at that yummy treat! I'll be back to share another project and tell you all about it! MMMMM!!!
Such an awesome card!
