It's Your Birthday

Hello

Just popping in to share a birthday card I've made for my niece's birthday in a few weeks.  I'm okay to post it as she doesn't look at my blog.

The image is from Wild Rose Studios and is called Bunny and Butterfly.  That bunny is just too cute for words.

The image has been coloured with Copic pens and glitter has been added to the centre of the flowers and to the butterfly.

For the 'Special and Niece' tags I used the blank tag from the Christmas Sentiments set and added the words from the Someone Special Sentiment set.

Bluebell in Love

Good evening

Or should that be good morning!!  A very quick post to share the card I made using one of my new stamps from Wild Rose Studio - Bluebell in Love.  I love these stamps featuring Bluebell, they're gorgeous and have bought one or two, well it was just too hard to resist!!

The image has been coloured with Copic pens and the background paper is Woodland Wishes from LOTV. 

The sentiment comes with the image.  I've kept the embellishments very minimal, just added a few pearls in the corners, this will help with the postage costs this Christmas!

Well that's it from me, I said it would be quick.  I'm off to bed now, otherwise I won't be able to get up for work in a few hours time.
