Just Us Girls

 

TGIF! I'm entering this birthday card into the Just Us Girls challenge where it is "word week" and the word is CELEBRATE. I was recently asked by a friend to design a card for a boy who was turning 16 and this is what I created.

I layered up a couple of tags to use as the focal point. I love to personalize a card in some way, so here I added the #16. The balloon was white embossed then watercolored with Twisted Citron distress ink.

STAMPS: Scribble Balloons, Cake Creations (Papertrey Ink).
INK: Pure Poppy; Versamark; Versafine Clair Nocturne; Twisted Citron distress.
PAPER: Surprise! Collection 6x6 pad by BoBunny; Pure Poppy, Stampers Select White, Green Parakeet (PTI).
DIES: Banner Builders: Basics, Charming Tags, Cake Creations, Scribble Balloons (PTI); Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-Namics (My Favorite Things); Master Layouts 08 (Gina K Designs).
OTHER: White embossing powder, Red/white thread.

That's it for today. It will be more visits to the hospital this weekend post stem cell transplant for my husband who is fighting multiple myeloma. He is doing very well with only minimal side effects...an answer to lots of prayers for him! Have a blessed weekend!  ~Wanda
