Cute Birthday Card Using Heffy Doodle's "Dinky Dinos" Stamp Set!

Hey lovelies! March is a month full of birthdays for me, so this week I'm sharing another birthday card this time using Heffy Doodle's "Dinky Dinos" stamp set! I have a fascination with dinosaurs and these tiny little stamps were too adorable, I couldn't resist! I stamped my images using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured them with my alcohol markers.

I cut a panel from white card stock using the second largest die from Mama...

I coloured my images and created a soft background for them using my Altenew...

I repeated the masking and stamping process until...
