Birthday Fishes Birthday Card

Image
In our craft group, we have decided that we are going to make cards for each others birthday.  I love the idea of this, however it does not seem right to give a birthday card that we have made in class.   As I only had the list of birthdays for a couple of days, and the was three birthdays in January, two of which had already passed so i made this  belated birthday tortoise card .   After looking through  The card concept's  blog, I was totally struck by the latest design challenge. The colour of that hot chocolate and these berries, so i used that as my inspiration. I quickly pulled out my all time favourite stamps which are the Santoro Gorjuss girls (no i am not sponsored by them - I wish i was) and quickly got to work. I stamped the Little Fishes stamp on white stock card, coloured it in, i choice a cute little nautical  themed outfit. The sky and sea were highlighted it different shades of blue, and the majority was coloured in chalk, i used the white rollerball pen to add so

Don't you just hate missing a birthday?  Usually I am so organised and haven't missed a birthday for a number of years (pats myself on the back) I joined a card making class in December and as a nicety, we all make each other a birthday card.  We got a list this week, but two of the ladies had already had their birthdays during the Christmas break, so i decided to make a belated birthday card for each. On the second one i Trimmed off the scallops, and left the designer papers square. Which do you like the best, scallops? or no scallops? What i Used 6" x 6" Scalloped Card Design Paper - From Stock Pink Ribbon Yellow Stock Card Blue Chalk (For background) Uniball Drawing Pel 0.3mm  DecoTime Aqua Markers I have entered this card into: Global design project Simon says stamp Feel free to Visit the Blog | Follow on Pinterest | Follow on Facebook |  Follow on Twitter |Follow on Instagram Subscribe to Pretty Shabby UK
