Inky sweetness and Birthday Wishes

These adorable images from Inky Impressions are just too sweet for words. I love their big round eyes and the details that make them really come to life. I created this card for my step-grandmother with spring-like colors of gable green, apricot appeal, and pretty in pink. The dp in the background is Two Scoops from BasicGrey, which is sold at KL Stampin N Scrappin. It was colored with both prismacolor pencils and Copic markers. The string actually had Happy Spring on it, so I changed it up a little with a general sentiment that would work for a July birthday.

I sure hope she likes it as much as I do.

*****************

This sweet couple, Milo and Lily, are here to send out Birthday Wishes and have balloons for you too! I am definitely in need of more birthday cards, so here is one of the new birthday cards I created last week. The newly retiring Rachelle Anne Miller Congratulations stamp can be found at KL Stampin N Scrappin!! Colored with prismacolor and gamsol, layered on scalloped rectangles created with Nesites, DP from Two scoops, and Stampin Up card stock (taken with teal, appricot appeal, gable green). This card is 5 1/4 x 5 1/4 inches.
