Make A Wish

Hi and welcome to my blog.  Today's card was made especially for a few of the current challenges, specifically Seize The Birthday's Anything Goes theme, Less is More who are looking for dragons, heroes or saints, the colors at Color Throwdown, the Girlie theme at Simon Says Stamp and the fussy-cutting/die cutting celebration theme at Time Out.

For my card, I colored up the adorable dragon from Sugar Pea Designs, after doing a bit of masking to add the birthday cake.  Once I was finished coloring, I fussy cut the image out and colored the whole thing with clear Wink of Stella.

On my card base, I sponged Picked Raspberry and Carved Pumpkin inks over the Geometric Grid stencil by MFT, concentrating on the bottom left corner and fading it out towards the center of the card.  I then stamped the sentiment in black ink and popped up my dragon with foam tape.  I finished the card with some rainstones.

Thanks for visiting.  This is a long weekend here in New Zealand as tomorrow is ANZAC Day.  Hopefully I'll get some bonus stamping time in :)
