Hello, time to create again
I needed a birthday card for a special young lady, I choose to love her 26 years ago , and in return I got a lot of love and happy memories...
I used a gift image and choose some pretty DP and colored that image to match or coordinate with colored pencils, then a blender pen, my favorite way to color...
I love the SU label dies and I used some clear liquid gloss on the flowers to make them shiny. And a piece of velvet ribbon to make the color pop ... This card is 5 x 6 1/2 inches.
Again I love square cards... this one opens in the center ..
I used some blush colored card stock against the black card, I think it makes a nice contrast...
I used Sizzix label # 18 dies, some ribbon in my stash, that was purchased to go with the blush card stock and then soaped a fun butterfly in blush , just to add some thing so it was not so plain... The double layer of labels is attached only to the left side so the card opens ...This card is 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 and really an easy and quick card...It will be going out to a special lady .
Well there you have it, the first card is way out of my comfort zone, but I love the way it turned out...soft and pretty...
I love the quote, at the top oft the post...It is so me... I love to create...but need that push ...
Thanks for stopping by, Come back soon... Have a great week... And SMILE
til next time, waving

Pretty cards, Soni. The bicycle is really pretty with all the flowers overflowing. I'd love to find an old bicycle and do just that as a focal point in one of my flower beds.
