Happy Easter everyone! Today is the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge and three of the girls on our Sweet Sunday Team are celebrating their birthdays. So in honor of that we're dedicating this SSSC114 to Karen G., Vicki and Sarah and wish them the happiest of birthdays!
For my birthday card I ended up turning the sketch vertical and using the My Favorite Things Pure Innocence stamp set Birthday Princess. I used my Copics to color this fun image and paper pieced her dress. I added some glitter to the birthday candles for a touch of sparkle, a cluster of die cut roses with pearl centers and at the last minute added the row of die cut grass to hide a blotch of black ink along the bottom of my image. Isn't that always the way it goes, you get everything colored and taped and then bam a boo boo, at least I was able to cover it up.
To play along create a card using Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch, then go to Karen’s blog The Sweetest Thing and link your card so we can all see your creation!

This is adorable! I LOVE the little PI girls and your card is super cute - love rolled roses with the pearl centers too!
ReplyDeleteShe is just darling! I love her and she's on my ever-growing list of must have's! You made me laugh about the grass - I do that ALL the time too, so I'm glad to be in good company. Thank you so much for the birthday wishes!
ReplyDeleteSuper sweet Lynn, I love that little PI birthday girl!! I love the added grass and if you hadn't said I would have never know it was covering a boo-boo!! Thanks so much for the birthday wishes and Happy Easter to you and your family!!!
ReplyDeleteOh what a fabulous card!!! So sweet and fun. I just love your flowers! Hugs,
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet card. The grass looks like it was meant to be there...I would have never known you put it there as a cover-up. Wonderful job!

ReplyDeleteAdorable image and very sweet card!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute card Lynn. Love the image, the colors... the grass and flowers are perfect. :o)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card. The rosettes are to die for and the last minute addition of the grass border is neat even if it's purpose was to hide a boo boo. Never would have guessed it.
ReplyDeleteLove her from the polka dotted dress, to the adorable rosettes!
