Another Birthday

No not mine. I just forgot to post the second birthday card for the Omaha stash for daughter Amy to use. This will just be a quick post.


The Birthday Bug
~Base card - PaperTrey Ink - Pure Poppy
~Layer of My Mind's Eye Penny Lane
~Layer of redish colored cardstock - scalloped using Fiskars Paper Edgers
~Layer of striped ribbon
~Digital image from Digital Delights printed on my favorite Copic coloring paper - Cryogen White from Paper Temptress - it is AWESOME! You can't see it from the photo - but in real life - the paper has a very slight sparkle. The image was colored using Copics, the centers of the flowers on her dress and cap were topped with Stickles Yellow. Edges smudged with Stampabilities Baby Blue and a thin layer of Stampabilities Black. Highlights on cheeks and shoes - Poster Paints white.
~Bling added to her antenae
~Sentiment stamped using Versamark and Ranger Rich Red and Ranger Moss embossing powders, cut out using an oval Spellbinders - the sentiment itself is from a Stampin' Up set
Challenges

Mark's Finest Papers - use stripes (the ribbon is striped)
Mami Doodles - girly birthday card
Get Sketchy - layout
The Pink Elephant - childhood theme

All good wishes,
