SWEET SUMMER

I am popping in to share a card I made today with a Kenny K image:


I used alcohol markers for the colouring:

The following were used to create my card:

white CS card base
dark pink CS mat
pink patterned DP
two pink buttons with ribbon ties
the paper rose is one I learnt to make in a workshop today
For the sentiment, I added the word 'Happy' as 'Birthday' was already on the DP

Some white gel pen doodling on the sentiment and around the image were added as I wanted to get a graffiti wall look, but in a feminine way:


Thanks for visiting my blog today

luv'n huggz
