edited to add - so it's been brought to my attention that apparently I cannot spell ... my title is supposed to read Happy Birthday GIRL not GRIL! oops :)
Hi everyone! First off I need to say "thank you" to all of you who have left me wonderful thoughtful comments about my return to the stamping/crafting world! It really means a lot to me and gives me that much more inthusiasm to forge forward. So again, thank you!
Now I would like to share what I created with inspiration from the following challenges. I once again used a Tiddly Inks digi image, this one is called Happy Birthday Girl. Included with this digi download is a cute little polaroid frame, which you can see I incorporated into my card. Tiddly Inks challenge this month is "Anything Goes" so go and check it out, you still have LOTS of time to join in! Next challenge is Nina B Presents a Sketch over at Lily Pad Cards and for some colour inspiration I used CR84RN's Colour Challenge ... love that colour combo. Here's the sketch and the colours ...
And here is what I came up with ...
At the top of the card I added some lace trim and white polka dot ribbon. Then I decided to add a little grey taffeta ribbon and a little yellow rose. I had to make the little yellow paper rose because I searched and searched in my stash and believe it or not could not find anything, imagine that! LOL. Here's a close up of the flower and the glitter on the cake ...
Here are all the copics that I used ... if you can't make all the colours out just click on the image!
Well I think that about covers it for today ... so glad you stopped by!
Until next time,

Monique, your title did make me chuckle.....remembering back when our boys were little I don't remember any of the details, but it was something about "feed the brids" (birds) which always seemed so hilarious to me.....
AND I love your card! So glad you joined us at Lily Pad Cards!
