Hugs, Kisses and Birthday Wishes

It's time for a new challenge with us on the
As always, the challenge is Anything Goes.

~~~*~~~*~~~

The sponsors for this challenge are:
           
 All Dressed Up   +   Bugaboo Stamps     

~~~*~~~*~~~

Today I have used the Amore digital stamp from All Dressed Up, one of our generous sponsors for this challenge, to make a birthday card.  This delightful image comes in three formats, one with the girl, balloons & sentiment, one with the girl & balloons and one with just the girl.  As you can see below, I have used the one with just the girl.



I opened the Amore digital stamp (the girl without the Amore sentiment & balloons) in Silhouette Studio, along with a hearty frame (link & details below) and sized them to make a 5 1/2" x 7" card.  The odd size is to give an even border around the hearty frame.  I created the birthday sentiment (font details below) added a heart flourish balloon (link & details below) then sized it on the opposite diagonal of the card to complete the image panel.  I printed the panel on X-Press It blending card, heat set, trimmed to size and coloured with Copic markers.  I made a card base and adhered the image panel in place with liquid adhesive.



. . . remember how I told you there were three variants of the image in this set?  Well here is a sneak peek the other card I made . . . click HERE or on the image below to learn all about it.

NOW it's YOUR turn!

I hope that I have inspired you to get creative
and look forward to seeing your projects fill the gallery for
