Happy Birthday
This card is for my grand daughter who was two last week. Unfortunately she didn't get this card as the post office didn't deliver it. So here it is for her to see.
Like lots of little girls she likes handbags so this stamp is perfect for her as is the pink colour that I used to make most of the card.
To make this card you will need:
The Kids sheet of unmounted stamps from The Merry Stamper
9mm Swiss dot ribbon in hot pink
Pink blooms
TuT pens from Kuretake to colour the image
Crayon Kid Alphabet Rubber Stamps
Pink buttons
White and pink card
Most of the working for this card is fairly self evident. The printing of the word 'Julia' needs a little explanation.
Stick the letters to the mounting block, remembering to put them on in reverse order, otherwise the word will be the wrong way around when you print it. I didn't put the letters in a straight line as I believe that the harder you try to get perfection the harder it is to attain it.
Colour each letter with the TuT pens and vary the pinks to get a more interesting word. Print randomly over the base of the card as seen.

It is a very sweet card!
Thanks for visiting my blog and for the lovely comment you left!This card is too cute! I love how you stamped the "Julia" on the bottom. It looks so much like a child had done it - which totally makes the card!
Hi, Yvonne.. Great card, as usual! I'll bet your grand-daughter loves it! Is she old enough to understand that her name is all over the bottom of it?
I love the technqiue, and will be remembering that one! :o)
