Balloon Girl Birthday Card

Created this Birthday Card using a sketch for Paper & Such Anniv Challenge. Used a digi from The Cutting Cafe I was given when I was Guest Designer for Made Especially for You. See post from 4/9/12 for details. Printed girl image on flesh color cardstock which I did previous time using this digi and I like the look of it. Printed another time on pink cardstock for dress. Colored using Crayola pencil colors, liquid Pearls & Sakura pens. Fussy cut the image out.  To complete the sketch I added white paint to resemble rick rack and painted some balloons. My painting is not the best but creative in my opinion. Stamped Happy Birthday sentiment.

























coloring: 
Crayola pencil colors
Sakura pens - black, lavender & red
stickles - red - balloon girl is holding

digi: The Cutting Cafe Girl Holding A Balloon

ink: Memento Tuxedo Black

paper:
balloon scrapbook paper
cardstock: bright blue, flesh color, lavender, pink

stamp: studio g
