Happy Birthday

I recently won a challenge and got to pick some images from Cute as a Button.  It was a hard choice as there were so many gorgeous images but in the end this was one of the images I chose.  It is called "Cuddly Busty Buttons - Sitting Pretty".

I have coloured the image in with my Promarkers and used a VersaMagic chalk ink pad around the edge of the image.

I won another challenge and got to pick three digital paper packs from Lozzy and I picked the set called "Watercolour Wings".  I have used four of the papers, two for the backgrounds, one for the plain layers and another patterned paper on the banners (making sure I got the writing up the right way!!).

I have finished the card off with some wide lace, Sizzix die-cut circles, LOTV digital sentiment, three Lisa Horton banners, three green flowers which I inked with Tim Holtz's Broken China distress oxide and some pearls.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

CD Sunday - Anything goes (digital image, digital sentiment and digital papers)

Cute as a Button - Anything goes with the option of anything but a square card
