Happy Birthday

 good morning crafters
popping in with a personal share today, a birthday card for my beautiful granddaughter Ruby.
a fabulous young lady who turned 12 yesterday and for her card i've used on of my saturated canary stamps: little ladybug and my colouring medium is: distress ink. i would normally die cut Ruby's name and add it to the card but i think the colours used for this card spell out her name beautifully.






i'm never quite sure how the paper will handle a bright red and i decided not to colour wash the background just in case the red bled, i need to add glossy accents to her eyes and wings, i'd ran out and had to order some more and sadly it won't be delivered in time for this post, so i am sharing minus the glossy accents but i will share the completed card at the end of an up coming post...

some of the items used:
distress ink, tonic dies, sakura glitter pen, mulberry roses, satin ribbon, memento ink, saturated canary stamp, sizzix sentiment stamps, spellbinder dies, mft sentiment stamp, white base card, off white card, granddaughter & personalised stamp from 
stamping-all-day and maja design designer papers.

all it leaves me now to say is:
thanks for stopping by enjoy your day and
craft happy, Ann
