It's Your Day

Good afternoon from a very wet Michigan. We have had a lot of rainfall over the last week but hey at least it's cooled the temperatures down!

It's Friday which means one thing - Chibis New release day over at Scrapper's Delights and there are some cuties this time round. I have used Happy Birthday, she comes both with and without the candle:

I used my graphics program to add the sentiments and image and printed on white card. The image was colored with Copic markers giving a glow from the candle. This was then matted at an angle onto pink starry design paper. I matted my 5x7 in card base with pink card and added my topper.

I adhered tiny blue pearls around the cake to give it some interest.

Happy Birthday is being released with 2 gaming images. If you purchase all 3 you can then get the VIP deal which means you get this month's zodiac collection free!

Cake and balloons - it must be a birthday

Good afternoon, I'm currently incapacitated, I have a problem with my left leg which is causing me a great deal of pain and affecting my ability to do anything. 

Apart from when I color I usually craft standing up so I've had a bit of a lull where card making is concerned. I now have a high stool for my desk and a table so I can keep essentials near by so I'm trying hard to get back into the swing of things - after all I can't bring myself to buy Christmas cards.

Kev called me on Tuesday needing a birthday card for a colleague, it needed to be large enough for the whole team to sign so out came my 8x8in scalloped card bases

The image is a pre-printed one I bought from Lili of the Valley a long while ago. I matted the cute kitty onto pink card along with 2 coordinating Nit Wit Bonnets n Bowties patterned papers, one the same size as my image and one to mat my card base with. I added a colorful ribbon to the paper on the base. I then positioned my layers and adhered these in place.

I die cut Happy Birthday from the same pink card and positioned it in the corner of the card. I added some pink crystal gems from my stash just to balance the card.

A very girly card that was quick and simple to make
