A Two Challenge Birthday Card

  Another rarity for me; a card for two challenges. I had to make a birthday card for my daughter's niece, who turned 6 at the end of September. Usually I make a card based upon the theme of the party. Not knowing what it was, I geared it toward this week's MIM #85 and retrosketches #31 challenges.

 

 

 My card: 

  I used Copics (BV31, BV02, YG23, YG93) to color the party images.

  The double banner die was used as the glitter tabs. I used Glitter Ritz (Lilac, Silver and Kiwi Green). sorry for the blurred photo.

Added  the cut out from the Take Three die with the stamped candle image as part of the inside.

 I still need a tag to go with the present. (Barbie Clothes)
thanks for stopping by to take a peek.

Happy Birthday, Thea

  My grand niece, Thea,  turns 4 today. I needed to make a quick card since she lives in Arizona. On Monday when I made this card, I had seen this layout by  Kim O'Connell and thought it would be perfect.

    I wanted to get some yellow in this card as that is Thea's favorite color. I think the LemonTart compliments Spring Rain fairly well. I used my SU colored pencils with some Gamasol to color the images as I didn't have the right color Copics to go with the pattern paper.

 An up close view of the satin ribbon & button. I realized after I mailed the card I forgot to add the tiny tag under the button.

     Thank you for stopping by.
