Ink #211 - Paint splatters

This fortnight the theme for our new challenge at Inkspirational is paint splatters.
I made another card for my nephew Noah's 13th birthday. I used the footballer die from Dixi Craft, cut in white and another one in black for shadow. I added number 13 on his chest, to represent his age, and also die cut letters to add his name. A birthday greeting was stamped.
The background was made with blue inks and brushos. I used watered out gesso and blue ink to make splatters. I also used a stamp with numbers and text and another one with circles, stamped with blue ink, so it's very subtile. A few stars were added as well.
Please head over to the challenge blog to see what my teammates have made.

This card is also for:
