Birthday Wishes

By Julie | 5 December 2009

Oh, my poor neglected blog! Rather than dwelling on my guilt over my lack of posting, how about I just show you my card?

This one, a birthday card for my sister, is my latest attempt with my Copics. I believe that this Elisabeth Bell stamp is meant to be a holiday image (note the holly!), but I overlooked that for this card since I wanted to use purples. Hopefully I got away with it!

Here is a look at the entire card:

And a closer look at the stamped image that was colored with Copics:

I hope you all have a great weekend! I’ll definitely be posting more projects next week. Thanks so much for visiting!

What I Used:

Paper: Papertrey Ink Vintage Cream cardstock, Stampin’ Up! Elegant Eggplant cardstock; Tinkering Ink Provincial Fair designer paper

Stamps: Elisabeth Bell for Whiff of Joy stamps; Inkadinkado (sentiment); Stampin’ Up! Baroque Motifs (swirl)

Ink: Versafine Onyx Black; Versamark; Stampin’ Up! Almost Amethyst
