Happy Birthday!


I made this bright card yesterday for a friend of mine who has a birthday this week! I really love using bright colors.

This is one of my Birthday Bella's. This card uses CTMH cardstock in: Watermelon, Ocean, and Citrus Leaf. The Birthday Bella was stamped using black staz on onto some watercolor paper. I used my matching CTMH markers to outline her and then used my water brush to blend her. THANKS AUNT LISA FOR TEACHING ME THIS YESTERDAY! I used my birthday cuttlebug folder to emboss the background. I punched the photo corner and raised it using double sided stick tape and then added the rhinestones. The white organdy ribbon was added as a final touch and is CTMH too.

Well, I can't believe November is already here. Time flies when your stamping I guess. I hope you all have a wonderful Monday, and I will see you tomorrow with something new. Inky Hugs!
