It's Tuesday again which means it's time for another Crazy4Cocoa challenge! This week the theme is "birthday", and since it just happens to be Korin's birthday today, we're doing a surprise birthday blog hop in her honor!! In case you don't know.........Korin is the owner of Sweet'n'Sassy stamps, and the creator of this adorable Cocoa mouse image. Happy Birthday Korin!! I hope you have a fantastic birthday!For my card I used the Birthday Cake Cocoa digital image, printing on Neenah card stock and coloring with Copics. I used berry sorbet cardstock along with white, and lined the envelope with matching bitty box basics dp. I embossed the background with the Cuttlebug Happy Birthday embossing folder, and added a Spellbinder's lotus behind the main image. I have several photos here so that you can see the accents added to this card. One photo simply doesn't show them all.
This photo shows the glossy accents I added to the frosting on the cake. YUM!!
On this photo, you can see all the tiny star sequins I added to the card. They're silver, white, clear, and irridescent and this outdoor photo shows them better than the other photos.If you arrived here from Monika Davis's blog, then you're on the right track!
