Spring Tilda has a Birthday!

My little cousin, Molly, has a birthday this weekend, and even though she'll get her card a bit late, I wanted to make it special. She and her sister are such great kids, and I don't get to see them nearly often enough!

Since Molly has black hair--I had to attempt that for the first time. I'm pretty pleased the way this little Spring Tilda came out.

I added a little bit of bling with Stickles, and then perched her on top of the packages with dimensionals. The packages on the left side are also raised up--but I don't think it shows well on the picture.
Supplies: Paper--GP (white), DCWV (Nana's Nursery); Stamps--Spring Tilda (Magnolia), Packages (Stamps by Judith); buttons (Joann Fabrics); Stickles (Stardust); and Copic Markers (as shown below).

Little Molly shares a birthday with her daddy, so I had a second card to make. This golfer bear was the first image I colored when I got my Copics. Unfortunately, I didn't even think to write down the colors I used. The stamp is from Darcie's Country Folk, and the papers are GP and DCWV. The inside says: Hope your birthday is filled with birdies and so much more!

Thanks for stopping by! I'd love to hear what you think of these!
