A PINK BARBIE BIRTHDAY CARD

A client ordered a birthday card - a PINK BARBIE BIRTHDAY CARD - so I popped off to the free colouring pages on the web to find a Barbie image suitable for a little girl, whether she is 3 or 13 (I forgot to ask the age of the little girl).  Here is my card:


I coloured the image using Copics and a white gel pen and popped it onto a pink CS mat.  Stickles were added for bling.

A few years ago, on my travels  I bought some metal "Barbie" logo charms, and this is the first opportunity I have to use one - I knew it would come in handy someday! 

The other elements in the construction of my card include:

white CS card base
pink butterfly DP
remnant of very bling-y trim
sewn on pink sequin flowers and beads
gems
roses
