Have a Fabulous Birthday!



Penny Black has several clear sets featuring these funky girls that make perfect cards for the 20 and 30-somethings.  That is sometimes a more challenging age group and you can have some fun with these stamps.  For this card, I stamped and cut out the image (the hardest part of the whole card) and colored her with Copic markers.  The background is a BoBunny doble-dot cardstock, cut from a Spellbinders large scallop die. I then took the next largest die and cut it from a white glitter cardstock, to give it a little bling!  We all like bling!  I stamped a balloon image partially on the double-dot background, then stamped the balloon on white cardstock and cut it out, colored it with purple Copics and attached it to the card.  The words are stamped on a purple Bazzill, then cut out with an oval Spellbinders die and then layered to an oval scalloped die.  Lastly I added a little Crystal Stickles to the image for more sparkle.  Just a fun card that will surely bring a smile to someone celebrating a birthday!

Thanks for checking the blog today - come back later for some pictures from the show!
