Sketch #26 and a Birthday card for my Nan

Killing 2 birds with one stone this week.  My nan's birthday is coming up next week, actually it falls on Halloween....and if that isn't cool enough, she has s twin sister....

 Anyway, I have chosen to make a birthday card using the Frosted paper and I really like how it turned out.

 Here is the sketch:

I actually didn't follow my own sketch right to a tee this time......I didn't like the sentiment below the ribbon, so I placed it above and liked how it looked much better.  Here is my finished project.

 I really like the look of Twilight and Crystal Blue with the frosted paper, and blue just happens to be my favourite colour.
Here are a few close-ups of the flowers and ribbons....just so you can see the dimension of the flowers.  


Supplies:

Card Chatter- Birthday (D1475)
You Only Live Once (B1434)
Love This (B1432)
Swirls Around (D1551)
Twilight Ink and Alcohol Marker
Crystal Blue Ink and Alcohol Marker
Buttercup Alcohol Marker
Frosted Paper Packet
Colour Ready Seam Binding Ribbon(Died Twilight using Alcohol Marker)


If you like my creation, why not pop on over to Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge and grab some inspiration from our Design Team.

 If you want to purchase any of the supplies you seen in this creation, listed above, you can shop on my website here.

 I've also entered this card into the Color My Heart Color Dare for this week.

    Pretty!! I love the flowers, and I think you're right -- the sentiment looks better ABOVE the ribbon. Nicely done. Thanks for taking this week's Color Dare.
