Pretty simple, die cut the Happy Birthday from a bright orange alcohol inked sheet of Yupo.
I've coloured the little bat with Prisma pencils, added a few highlights, fussy cut him out on the line and for a bit of fun... gave him googly eyes, some of you will know where this card is heading 😉
**Just a heads up for those wondering why I'm entering a birthday card into Halloween challenges... it is because my husbands birthday is on Halloween so I figured that counts and it is for fun afterall, right?**
