Passion For Promarkers Challenge #285 - Letters of the Alphabet (Anything Goes)

Hi Crafters,
Sorry I haven't been around much this week but I have been trying to limit my internet time. I have a lot of orders to get finished and find that too many unproductive hours slip by whilst sitting in front of my screen, lol. More discipline needed I think. Normal service will be resumed shortly and I will visit soon, promise.
So on to today, I am here to share with you my DT card for Passion For Promarkers and this week we are sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps who are offering a $21 voucher as their prize.
I went with 'B' is for Birthday and here is my card.

Recipe
Woodware Stamp - Huge Happy Birthday
Promarkers
Inky Doodles Stamp - Leafy Background
Stampin' Up Corner and Border Punch
Pearls
Glitter
 
I love this large Woodware stamp, it is so versatile. I stamped and embossed it to give a raised edge to the letters and then I masked off the words and stamped my background. I then coloured it with my Promarkers ( puzzlingly in real life the colours are more blended but somehow the camera has picked up the shade differences :/ ) added shading around the letters so that it gives a 3d illusion and used glitter to highlight the tops of the letters. It's also quite flat for posting too.
