happy birthday, Brittany the birthday girl

hi!

welcome to my bella share today.

iv'e taken inspiration from last week's bellarific friday sketch clallenge knowing i needed to make a birthday card for one of my niece's i thought i would play along with the challenge and this is my interpretation of the chosen sketch. i have used Brittany the birthday girl and coloured her up with my trusty distress ink using the stamp cover as my colour inspiration.

i have also done a little masking to add the happy birthday sentiment, i didn't want to make a fussy, ornate card.
