This is my latest birthday card for today. Honestly, I am not at all happy with the result, but I always try to "make do" with my cards - maybe I will be inspired to make a change for the better!
Image is by Unity. I added some Stickles, and I think that was a mistake. The verse I overstamped is from an older SU set called Versatile Verses. CS and DP are Recollections, except the metallic DCWV I used for the tiny flowers.I have teeny half pearls in the centers. The border is a Martha Stewart punch, and the flourishes from a Cuttlebug die. The bit of blue ribbon has a glittery edge. The ink is Fiskars blue.

First of all, if you know this image, please let me know!
The DP is Colorbok. I used Prismas to color, and a Cuttlebug die for the trellis strip.
This is the sketch - though as I looked at the inspiration I know I did not really get the idea LOL! - http://cardpositioningsystems.blogspot.com/

Great job on both cards! Your little guy image sure is cute.
Great cards Dorothy, the little boy image is very cute and beautifully coloured.
Thank you for sharing your work with us at Crafting When We Can Challenges. :-) xx
Such a lovely card. Love all the blues, but have to say it is not birthday but butterflies as our third B at Stamptacular. I still hope to see you back tomorrow for a new challenge. Bettina xx
Really pretty! Glad you played along with our challenge on the Ippity Blog!
Great job! Thanks for playing along with us at CPS last week...and I can see the sketch in there...sometimes it's more of a "starting off point" than a literal take, right? :)
