Hello sweet bloggers,
Here is my card to show you today. The image is actually a coaster that was in the breakfast room of a hotel in Jakarta. The background on the cardstock below has been created with shaving foam and food colouring. It all came together beautifully I thought.
The BIRTHDAY sentiment has been die cut from a scrap of wallpaper.
I hand wrote the HAPPY on the coaster with a red Sharpie. I do think I could have done better with the dot on the i of the "birthday". And yes, I have used glossy accents on the feathers of the rooster for added interest.
I do like my card overall.
I will enter my card in the following challenges:
