Balloon Birthday Girl


I found this pre-colored digi image by Crafty Moments called "Balloon Girl" in my folder and decided to print it and make a card with it. It reminds me of spring with the pastel colors, but I added a little more blue with a Copic marker since my printer didn't do such a good job (it's old). I die-cut it with a Lil Inker stitched rectangle die and added a few clouds done with snippets of cardstock and Lawn Fawn stitched cloud dies. I added some more Copic color to ground her, covered her clothes, skates and balloons with clear Wink of Stella for some added sparkle, added a SNSS sentiment, and placed it on a Lawn Fawn purple card base. Quick and easy and one for my stash.


Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Carol

How cool, a very nice trendy image. She looks super and would make a great teenage Birthday card. This made me smile and took me back 30 plus years to when I would have wore my roller skates to bed if my mom would have let me, its brilliant x

The purple base is a great accent for this image. The stitched border on the panel and the clouds add a fun detail.
