HOPE YOUR BIRTHDAY IS A SMASH! (1)

For this festive card, I used the Year Seven stamp set as the central image. I also used images from So Smooth, Stuck On You, Party Animal, Toboggan Together and Bicycle Built for You.

For the background, I used Spiffy Speckles paper. I also trimmed a strip of Guava cardstock, to function as the ground of the scene.

I stamped the cactus in Freshly Cut Grass Ink and Celery Stick Ink. The rest of the images I colored with Copic Markers. Here are the colors I used:
Piñata: Y38 - YR68/ Y15 - Y17/ BG13 - BG49
Birds: Y15 - Y17/ BG13 - BG49/ Y38 - YR68/ R22 - R35
Gifts: BG13 - BG49/ R22 - R35/ Y15 - Y17/ Y38 - YR68
Balloons: BG13 - BG49/ R22 - R35/ YG11 - YG13
Drink: BG13 - BG49/ R22 - R35/ BG000

I fussy cut or die cut the images. I adhered the images to the background and stamped the sentiment. I also added highlights and dots to the images, with my white gelly roll pen.

The panel was added to a Fake Tan cardbase.

If this doesn't get you into a party mood....
