Christy has a beautiful Critters in Desert birthday card to share with us today! Her collage-style card features all the cute critters and scene building images with a clever inked background. You can watch the video tutorial below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.

Thank you so much for watching!

Christy colored all the fun images from Critters in the Desert in soft desert hues. I love how she gave the critters whimsical pink cheeks! Then after using the coordinating dies to cut them out, she set them aside to create an amazing background.

First, she inked an L-shaped area with Distress Oxide ink in Antique Linen and Vintage Photo. Then she splattered the panel with water and those same inks. Finally, she also splattered a coppery gold paint to add lots of shiny sparkle! Once the background was dry, she assembled all the desert images in a fun collage mix.

Christy white-embossed the birthday greeting on Chocolate Bar cardstock, trimming each phrase before popping the strips on the card. Inside the card, she stamped another punny greeting and more cute images.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful inspiration with us, Christy! Your collage-style design is so cool!
