Scootin' Happy Birthday

Hi there!!

Today i'm sharing a card i made i don;t know how many weeks ago!! I recently cleaned off my craft desk and put all my extra embellishments, die cuts, stickers, paper scraps, etc all in this small dish with semi-high sides. The dish (full of stuff) sits on my desk and is kind of in the way, but as you probably noticed in past posts, i am committed to using up all the stuff in this dish!! And almost everything on this card comes from that dish!! Yay!

For Christmas i received the remaining Distress Markers i was missing and colored up a storm!! Several of those colored images are in my dish, just hanging out waiting to be used! Well for this card i used one! Cute little Penny Black's Mimi riding on a scooter!!

I trimmed the watercolor paper that i stamped and colored Mimi on. One edge i cute with a die, the negative of a notepad (should have flipped it around, but i like it regardless) Next i wrapped black twine around the panel and tied it in a bow.

I also found in my dish a flower journal card from who knows what, from who knows when!!! heheh!! :D I thought the flowers matched the colors i used to color Mimi, so i rounded the corners and adhered my Mimi panel to it. I stamped the simple Happy Birthday sentiment, then i adhered the whole thing to my card base with foam dots.

Have a great day!!

  2. I love how the distress markers colour - almost watercolory. Just beautiful! And that flower panel is perfect. Love the idea of the dish - I could use one of those too, but I doubt I'm organized enough to remember to USE it, lol!
