Since I never seem to have birthday cards when I need them, I decided to use our adorable Birthday Girl from the Pure Innocence line.  Base cardstock is MFT’s Tangy Orange.

My image was stamped onto X-Press It Blending Card, colored using Copics with colored pencils for the grass/ground.  After piecing the dress, I added a bit of shadow using W1 and W3 markers.

I stitched some cute Vintage Heart buttons to the front using jute string.  While the backs of the buttons are slightly colored, the fronts are brown (wood).  I decided to use the brown sides.

On the inside, I stamped my sentiment and used two scraps of the patterned paper.

Don’t forget to check out the other participants HERE, and leave comments along the way for your chance to win one of the fab four prizes!

Thanks for visiting today!  See you soon!
