Second Birthdays..

Well it's week 2 already of

Crafting When We Can's "Happy Birthday" challenge

I decided to use both images given us by

Karleigh Sue Designs

so here is my second card using "It's my Birthday"

I again chose a selection of papers from my scrap box

mostly pinks , but with other colours too.

 Selected a fancy edged/square card and 

tried out a few pieces. Again I didn't like the blank white background...

 so I broke it up using tiny stamps and colours from the patterned paper .

 I think it all sits much happier now :D

 Then it was simply a case of colouring this little lady

in matching colours...

 This time I pulled the soft blues from the paper, 

and added a sentiment sticker in the same green as the pattern too.

The sticker is actually from a Christmas set,

 but I think it works just fine for a birthday too.

Enjoy :D XXX
