Fusion 10/6/16 -- Happy Birthday, Daughter #1!

I'm actually pretty excited how this all came together!  Sometimes (ok, a lot) I have great "plans" and then I muff it up, it doesn't look the same on paper as it did in my head or SoMeThInG happens!!!  I know it happens to everyone, but I think a little more to me since I'm relatively new to all this...

Well Daughter #1's Birthday was actually yesterday but since she was out of town with her hubby, we'll be celebrating today.  Goodness!  She's the big 3-0!!  That doesn't make me old, right?  Well, before I keep you too long, I'll let you take peek...


I stamped the image and colored with Copics, added a few white gel accents, masked and ink blended through a stencil for the sun, cut the base and main image layers with stitched detail and mounted to the cs.  Glossy accents were applied to noses, eyes, balloons plus a few random ones to imitate the balloons.  A close-up of the details...


This was a fun card to make!  It will be sent to Fusion Card Challenge.  I was inspired by the layout, although it's totally in a scene instead of different cuts.  I couldn't make the chairs in the photo fit the stamp, go figure!

Products - 
   Stamps:  Penny Black Hedgehog Balloon Madness, front sentiment is SSS Sending/Wishing
   Stencil:  MFT Sun Ray (NBUS)
   Die:  Lil Inkers Stitched Rectangles
   Paper:  Bristol smooth, PTI Blueberry Sky, Neenah cardbase
   Ink:  Memento black, Ranger Mustard Seed and Scattered Straw
   Copics:  C1, 3, 5; E31, 93; R20, 24, 27, 29; Yppp, 11, 15, 17; YG03; G24, 28;B21, 24, 28

Thanks for stopping by, and hopefully see you soon!
Hugs,
TK

You should be chuffed at how this came together, TK! It's so super cute and a terrific party card for celebrating D#1's big 3-0! These kids just keep getting older while we keep getting younger! It's some sort of reverse gravitational pull and don't let anyone tell you notherwise!! Hugs, Darnell
