Blue Birthday

Good morning! we have had a great couple of weeks weather wise this past weekend was just the right temperature for me but now it's going to start getting hot!!!

It's Tuesday again so welcome to the next Digi Choosday Challenge, this week the design team's inspiration is blue birthday. I love the images on the Pretty Sweet CD and haven't used it for a while so I thought I'd revisit it - Meet Bella:

What I Did:

I used my graphics program to resize the uncolored version of Bella and printed it onto stamping card. I then colored her with alcohol markers.
The Gingham paper is also from the CD, as I wanted the pattern smaller I again used my graphics program to shrink it down and I printed it and a sentiment circle from the collection onto smooth cardstock.
I then matted my 5x7in card base with a coordinating blue card. I added the gingham design paper. My image was matted wit h the same blue card but with only 3 sides of it visible. I lined the top edge with my image as the swing goes off the card, this was then adhered to the card base.
I die cut a flower and matted my sentiment on to this This was then fixed to my card using foam squares. Finally I added some small enamel dots to coordinated with the pink in my image.
