I am part of a team of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from all over the US, Canada and me in Australia that are creating a card each Friday based on a original sketches designed by our team members. Today is our first sketch and each Friday a new card will be uploaded at 8pm (EST, Melbourne, Australia time).
My card is for my daughters 6th birthday. I ran out of time to make one for my other daughters birthday last month so I am getting super organised this time as Nikki's birthday is in October. It is hard to see but on the bravo burgundy strip, it does does magical birthday wishes just after the "6".
I made my own background paper with re inkers and glossy cardstock and water.
Here's our first sketch designed by Melinda Couden
My take on it!
Since I had some leftover handmade paper, I decorated the inside also.
Remember to stop by and check out everyone else's take using the sketch.
