Birthday Wishes & Happy Birthday

good morning to everyone and gosh it's thursday.
sharing two sporty themed cards today:
i'm back today to share my next dc inspiration cards in conjunction with the facebook challenge over at Lili of the Valley: Sport (link at the top of my blog page), again i've used  the ever so sweet Annabel tennis to adorn my first card. For this card i've chosen to go with a little bit of a fussy theme using some of my newly acquired dies (the fence and foliage) and also using up my lotv paper pads (so sad they've stopped doing them)
ah well onto my cards:
just a little colour change on my image with my distress ink to tie in with the papers i have chosen to use and i think it's all come together nicely. a simple layered card with my papers backed with white card and i've framed my image again using my new fav die gilded oval.
