Birthday Wishes for YOU!

I have a sweet Birthday card for a special little person in my life that is celebrating her big day tomorrow. The Big 4! Four years old, that is! I am using MOJO Monday Sketch 219 for this card. I combined some Verve stamps to create this fun background papers with all the layers in the sketch.

For the background I used some of the flowers from Dream Big, Bloom and Grow, Hope Blooms, and Sunny Days. I also used the large leafy sprig from Bloom and Grow. I stamped the flowers using Mememto rose bud, pale pink, and PTI summer sunrise. The leafy stem was stamped in Memento Pear. For the vertical panel and circular panel I stamped the dotted background from Bountiful Backgrounds using Memento pale pink. I then use the scallop frame from Making a Statement and die cut it out with the Rounded Scalloped Frame die. For the focal image I stamped the heart image from Love Story onto some more dotted stamped background using Memento rose bud. I lightly colored with copics and added some glitter for accenting. The star is from Always on My Mind stamp set. I just inked up the star portion of the image and stamped inside the heart. I glitzed it up a bit as well. The sentiment is from Making a Statement . I stamped in Memento rose bud and stamped the grid background using pale pink. I added some stitching, paper piercing, some square gems, and a big loopy bow.

As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Betty
