Crafting for all Seasons #9 Birthday

We saw some great entries into our last challenge over at CFAS but it's now time for a new one and this time the theme is Birthdays. We're being sponsored by Meljen's Designs and the design team got to work with some of her gorgeous images. I used Birthday Cup Mouse for my card:


The image is coloured with promarkers then it's been layered onto pink and green papermania cardstock. the green cardstock has been edged with a Martha Stewart punch. Backing paper is from the Fairy Flora stack. Card is finished with some ribbon, a pearl heart, pearls, a sentiment and a fancy flower.

Challenges entered:
Cute Thursday - a pinch and a punch
Stamp Something - digi day
Bee Crafty - beautiful borders/fantastic frames
Crafty Purple Frog - birthday card/gift
DYSU - friendly critters
Desert Island Crafts - itinery (flowers, sentiment, green)
Cupcake Craftroom - pink and green
Ribbon Carousel - anything goes
Lady Bug Crafts Ink - anything goes
Stamp N Doodle - anything goes
