1st birthday


It's our neighbour's little boy's 1st birthday at the beginning of September so i'm a bit ahead of myself with this card but we are away for the date so wanted to make sure it was ready.
The image is from Lili of the Valley, I think, it's been cropped a little and the edges rounded before being edged with a grey Promarker. The green backer has been treated the same way. 

2 pieces of card candi have been added to the corners and a peel-off greeting and number to the opposite side. 












A few sneak peeks now of the other 3 cards i've just finished. Can't show too much as I know 1 of the recipients reads my blog and as the feed goes on facebook the other 2 are likely to see it. 


I've used the same stamped image on all 3 with different coloured Promarkers. They have been cut using Nesties and layered up onto card in complimentary shape. The backing card has been embossed using a Cuttlebug embossing folder and paper flowers used with tiny brads.

I've enjoyed my morning using craft items i've not used for a while and am pleased i've got something to show for it.
