The images on this stamp set are quite big and take up a fair chunk of a 7x5" card so for balance I cropped the balloons and made him off the edge coming into land.
As usual he's coloured using Prisma pencils with a few white highlights added. The sentiment is from Wplus9 stamped in black Versafine and DOX spun sugar ink.
As its another card for my Mom I wanted to bling up the card so I offset both the image panel and a non shed silver glitter mat, fingers crossed it stays stuck together.
I must admit I wasn't so sure about this card until last night when I'd popped it on the mantelpiece ready to take a photo today and I caught the light bouncing off the glitter card, it looked so pretty and girly... now I like it :)

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, I love how this kitty is falling from heaven with a big bunch of balloons! It looks great stamped off the edge this way and gives great spotlight attention to the birthday sentiment! I love the colors and I'm sure the shimmer is awesome IRL! Your mom is going to cherish this one :)

What a charming card Claire. I really love the pink and grey colour combo. Yes, Christmas cards seem to be taking over my life as well. I also have plans for some cross stitch too, which may well fall by the wayside...we shall see!! xx

I love this card, the colours are wonderful and the whole design so wonderfully simple. Loved the last card too, with the Birthday kitties. They are firmly on my wishlist.
