These stamps are created by Dorky Prints which can be found on the online shop here . They came as a pack of six individual digital stamp. I really couldn't resist trying them. I've made two cards.

Then finally inside I wrote 'Have a smashing birthday.' I'm really happy the way it turned out. For the second card I used Captain America to make a comic book looking card. To create this I used Spectrum Noir bright colour pack to colour lots of this card. I highli
