Baseball Cuties - Happy Birthday

Hi everyone and thanks for stopping by my blog.

Over at Brown Sugar we have a new challenge starting today.

Theme: Anything goes

So here is my card for this week


I the photo below I used a sentiment die "Happy Birthday" from Cheery Lynn, cut out in black card and using cosmic shimmer glue to the bottom right hand side of the card.


The green and brown patterned paper was from My Minds Eye, Totally Girl 2009 collection and the border was "Doily Lace" from Martha Stewart.

In the top left hand corner I put a bling swirl.  It was a crystal clear and by using a promarker in the colour gold I changed the colour to match the bling on either side of the image. 


A piece of white card was used and coloured with a distress ink "Victorian Velvet".  I used a die which I got free from a magazine, it was a 3D swirl then rolled into the flowers.  The leaves were from a set from Tattered Lace, "Lavish Bloom Leaves"


I coloured my image with Crayola Coloured pencils and layered onto a rusty brown patterned paper.

My card today is an easel card.  The base card is made with kraft card stock cut using a Spellbinders dies Grand labels one.
