Happy Birthday

Today I am sharing a couple of birthday cards with you featuring the  adorable new set Lots of Love from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. You will love the sweet images and fun fonts in this set! It is great for making a variety of cards.

The sloth is so cute! My girls love it too so I had to use it first. One of the things I realize I never have enough of in my stash is cards for kids. So this year I intend to fix that issue.

For my first card, I used one of my favorite layouts. Why is it a favorite? Because it never fails me. I love how it can look so different depending on the paper and stamps sets chosen and it always comes out great. Plus, it is a great way to use your stash of pattern paper. I had some coloring issues with my Arteza real brush pens so I pulled out my hardly used Faber-Castell Polychromos colored pencils. I used Gamsol and a stump to smooth it out. I definitely need to practice more, but I am pleased with my results.
 

 This next card uses another easy layout and used my Polychromos colored pencils.


Thanks for stopping by and may you have an awesome day!
Karen
