Another Birthday Card


I made this card for my niece who turned 9 recently. I wanted to create a card that was not babyish for her but still girly.

I used Summer By The Sea (SU©) stamp set. Another favourite of mine. I usually watercolour this image but this time chose instead to paper piece her dress and hat with Enchante (SU©) retired).
I water coloured the grass in Certainly Celery and added Kindy Glitz Crystalina for some Bling and dimension.
I used my Cuttlebug to emboss Divine Swirls onto the Very Vanilla Cardstock. I added a strip of the DSP to the cardstock before it was embossed and then applied the Kindy Glitz to the paper.
The flowers are from my stash and the Rhinestone brad is from the Ice Circles (SU©).

Thanks for visiting. Have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year.
