Happy Birthday Princess-Send A Smile 4 Kids
This month at Send A Smile 4 Kids, we are celebrating all things birthday! I have a good friend who has 3 kiddos, and between her kiddos and my grandkids, I feel like I'm always making kid birthday cards. This one is for my buddy's youngest little girl. To make this card I layered red cardstock onto my white A2 card base. I then matted a piece of green patterned grid paper from the American Crafts Neapolitan 12x12 paper pad onto plain white cardstock. I then matted a piece of floral paper from the same paper pad onto more red cardstock. I layered them together. I then stamped the adorable little girl from My Favorite Things Pure Innocence Birthday Princess stamp set onto alcohol marker-friendly cardstock. I colored in the skin, hair, and cake. I stamped the crown and dress onto patterned paper from the paper pad, fussy cut them out, colored them with alcohol markers for depth and dimension, and paper pieced them onto the focal image. I fussy cut her out and mounted her with foam tape for dimension. I adhered her to the left of the card on a strip of red cardstock that I white heat embossed the sentiment from the same stamp set. I finished the card off with some red sequins and white gel pen detail. Now, be sure to head over the Send A Smile 4 Kids blog to see how the rest of the design team was inspired by this month's challenge. We would also love it if you played along!
