I decided to make a fun birthday card today.

I started by stamping PB – Party Friends cats and Distress watercolouring them. I’ve had this fun stamp set for years (at least 7). So many cute critter images in the set.

I then mounted the panel on black card. The sentiment was from PB – Birthday Bears stamp set.

The sentiment from the Party Friends set was stamped on a die cut using Altnew – Speech Bubbles.

I printed a sheet of music, trimmed it down, mounted it on black and added it to the card front. along with the speech bubble and some musical notes form Taylors Expression – Just a Note dies.

Please head over to our blog to  check out the wonderfully inspirational work by the rest of the Design Team!  I hope you will find the time to join our challenge this month.

I look forward to seeing what you create!  Good luck!

Cheers

Helen

I live in sunny Queensland, Australia with my husband and daughter. Since I was a child, I have always loved to create and have enjoyed all kinds of crafts, sewing and painting. China painting helped develop my understanding of colour and design. Over the last few years card making has taken up a major part of my crafting time as I love to play with new techniques and mediums. Since beginning my blog, entering various challenges has encouraged me to grow my skills and creativity.
