This card was made for Aubrey who is a talented dancer, so when I say this cute Connie Font image call Abbie with Cake in her little tutu I thought it would be perfect.

I printed it on Neena Classic Crest 80# Solar White Cardstock with a laser printer and colored it with Copic Markers: RV21, RV20; RV14, RV13, RV11, RV10; V17, V15, V12; E55, E53, E51, E50; E11, E01, E00; B0000.  Once the coloring was complete it was die cut using the PIXScan Mat and the Silhouette Cameo.  Darice Sticky Back Foam was added to the back by tracing the image on the paper of the foam sheet and fussy cutting with scissors.

To provide focal interest behind the image a rectangle of the Neena cardstock was cut with the Lawn Fawn Outside In Stitched Scalloped Rectangles.  It was then run through the Big Shot with the Darice Hearts Diagonal Embossing Folder.  Darice Sticky Back Foam was added to the back for dimension.  The focal image was adhered with Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive.

The sentiment is from the Winnie & Walter Sentimental Birthday stamped onto vellum with VersaFine Onyx Black Ink and heat embossed with Hero Arts Ultra Fine Clear Embossing Powder.  It was cut into a thin strip and wrapped around the rectangle and adhered at the back with Scotch Tape.

Since Aubrey’s favorite color is pink, a rectangle of pink cardstock from my stash was cut with a My Favorite Things A2 Stitched Rectangle and adhered to a top folding A2 cardbase made from Gina K. Designs 120# White Cardstock with Kokuyo Dotliner Adhesive.  The focal image was then adhered to the front with Nuvo Deluxe Adhesive and the card was done.

Penny Black’s Big Wish makes a cute birthday card for a young lady just turning twelve.  The image was colored in her favorite color of blue, with accents of pink.

The image was stamped on Canson XL 140# Watercolor Paper using VersaFine Black Ink and then heat embossed with Hero Arts Ultra Fine Clear Embossing Powder.  The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink Stylish Sentiments: Birthday and was stamped and heat embossed with the same products.

One of my grandson’s turned 13 on the first of March.  I wanted to create something a little more grown up.  I decided to create a white-on-white background with cutout balloons from My Favorite Things Party Balloons and Lawn Fawn Party Balloons.  I glued them with Tombo Mono Multi Glue to a panel of 80# Gina K. Designs White Cardstock die cut with Simon Says Stamp Bundle of Stitched Shapes Rectangle.

His favorite colors are blue and green so those are the colors I incorporated in the die cut sentiment and sequins.  I ink blended a piece of 80# Gina K. Designs white cardstock with Distress Ink Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire, Faded Jeans, Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint, and Twisted Citron.  I die cut the celebrate word with Winnie and Walter’s Big, Bold and Party set and then three more times from scrap white cardstock.  The words were glued together using Elmer’s Craft Bond Adhesive Spray.  The secondary sentiment is personalized with Concord & 9th’s Perfectly Penned, stamped with VersaMark Ink on a strip of ink blended cardstock, heat embossed with Gina K. Designs Fine Detail White Embossing Powder and cut into a fishtail banner.   The banner was adhered to the card front with Tombo Mono Multi Glue and then the die cut word was adhered just above using Ranger Multi Medium Matte.  Blue and green sequins from Recollections Multi Color and Multi Size Sequins were adhered with Rangers Multi Medium Matte.

To add a little more color to the card a rectangle of blue cardstock was cut to be 1/8″ larger than the balloon panel and both were adhered together with Tombo Mono Multi Glue.  A rectangle of Darice Adhesive Fun Foam was cut with Simon Says Stamp’s Bundle of Stitched Shapes Rectangle and then the panel was adhered to a top folding A2 cardbase made from Gina K. Designs 120# White Cardstock and the card was done.
