Welcome to the weekend... and there's always a reason to celebrate, right? Well this party girl is all dolled up bringing birthday wishes using Unscripted Sketches #216. When I visited Viva Las VegaStamps! back in April, I fell in love with this stamp and had to have her... "Hippo with Party Hat" #1454.
I made my own tissue tape with Miracle Tape and Miracle Sheets {a full letter-size sheet of Miracle Tape}. The colored tissue comes with a tissue wrap with the printed "happy birthday" on it; as you see above... except for the yellow. The yellow tissue section I created by stamping the "Happy Happy Birthday" #10479 stamp repeatedly in Milled Lavender Ranger Distress Ink. The green confetti tissue at the top is recycled from a gift I received {I've been having fun using this craftily}. I fussy cut and hand colored my party girl with my Ranger Distress Markers; then grounded her on a strip of grey spotted washi tape. The bright colored tissue really makes the party girl pop. I finished her off with some eyelash googlie eyes.
No card is complete until
you add some GOOGLIE eyes!
