Brother Birthday Card


Morning me lovelies, this is a virtual me here with a scheduled card that I made recently for James' birthday. This was Sophie's brother card to James and I can't believe I'm so far behind and haven't posted it yet...his birthday was nearly 3 weeks ago!

I've used another one of these fab Birdbrain images designed by From the Heart and I have to say I love these comical images.  They are such a refreshing change from all the cutesie images and even better still most of them come with sentiments included!

I paper pieced the playing cards to coordinate with the design papers and I have to say James absolutely loved this card...it's still up on the mantel piece!

Digital Image: From the Heart (Birdbrain Card Sharks)
Digital Design Papers: Bella Gypsy (Head in the Clouds)
Colouring Medium: Promarkers & Smooth White Card
Card Stock: SU! (Real Red)
Embellishments: Wooden buttons from my craft stash
Tools: Die-namics Die (Photo Corners), Poppystamps Die (Party Lanterns)
Sentiments: Created on the computer using 'Cinnamon' font
