Birthday Wishes

Hi Everyone!  Hope you all had a good weekend!  The weather here can't make up its mind whether it wants to snow or show signs of spring.  I think spring may be a ways off still with all the snow storms we've been having lately.  The weather makes it easy to stay inside and create cards, though.

Today, I decided to pull out this adorable Tobi with Love image from the Laurence Collection.   Isn't this such a cute image?!  I stamped the image on copic x-press it cardstock with tuxedo black memento ink.  I decided to do some paper piecing on the package and colored the rest of the image with copic markers.  I added some  shadows on the polka dot patterned paper using a marker.   I used some patterned papers from My Mind's Eye's Lime Twist: Life of the Party paper pad and finished my card off with some stitching, baker's twine, and a button.  The sentiment is from the Bountiful Baskets Additions stamp set from Waltzingmouse Stamps.  The sketch was inspired by this card by Sandra MacLean (you will only be able to see it if you're a Splitcoast Stampers fan club member).

Have a great week!

Niki
