A SPRING THEMED CAS BIRTHDAY CARD

This CAS birthday card was created using an image from Pattie's Creations:


The image was coloured using Copics and a white gel pen:


I fussy cut the left hand edge to make it seem as if the ladybugs are crawling off the card.  

The sentiment is created in MS WordArt, and the bottom border is punched.

Thanks for visiting today.

    I really love this, Jen! Fantastic fussy cutting on the lead ladybug. So glad you chose to play along in our "Anything Goes" challenge at Doodle Garden this month. Do hope you're going to become a regular player and good luck in the draw.
