I made this cutsie birthday card for a little girl turning 2. Ok, so I don’t know how much a 2 year old is going to care about the card (as opposed to the goodies I plan to send with it), but her mom will care! LOL
The card base is Bazzill pink textured cardstock. I layered a scrap piece of white cardstock and then used an extra piece of pink cardstock which I ran through my Big Kick with a happy birthday embossing folder. To pick up the raised parts of the embossed paper, I smudged on white ink with my index finger. To add more interest and a springy look to the background, I also glued white flower and small pearlescent sequins.
The cutie patootie stamped image is from Little Blue Button Stamps and is called Miss Lilly Big Cupcake. I colored her up with my Chromatix and Copic markers and added some extra sparkle and shine with Glossy Accents on her eyes and the cherry and glitter glue on the frosting of the cupcake. To give Miss Lilly and the cupcake something to stand on, I used my Martha Stewart doily edge punch and added some sheer blue ribbon to pick up the color of Miss Lilly’s headband and dress.
Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day! WOOF
Cute card! That ribbon is gorgeous! Great idea to add a little white ink or paint to the raised embossed letters! I am learning so many new things from you. Great card! Have enjoyed looking at them! 🙂
