Joy's Birthday Card

This is for today's SKETCH CHALLENGE # 547, Tuesday's COLOR CHALLENGE # 537 - Hello Cucumber & Melons and Monday's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 540 - Camouflaging Die Cuts.
I needed a birthday card for a friend in a couple of weeks and I have been teasing her about turning 60. Now that I think about it I will be 60 in a couple of years and it's not so funny anymore :(
Anyway I found a sentiment that reflects how a real friend should be and I decided today was the day to make her card.
I used a chevron stencil and copic markers on the bottom of my full white panel to create the camouflaging sentiment from. I cut and them stamped the images from DV set Make a wish and coordinating dies then used a copic to color the candle tips and cake with. Hope you like it and I hope she does too.

Itty Bitty Dream Big Father's Day

This is for today's SKETCH CHALLENGE # 541 and Tuesday's COLOR CHALLENGE # 531 - HelloBliss-@ BacisSandyLagoon. Well for those who are in awe of my ability to combine challenges, I failed today, could not find a way to do it today. I finally used my new dies dream catcher and dream sentiment. I cut DREAM in my dp and basic gray cs then glued them together. I did tone on tone with lost lagoon.

I also completed the inside and envelope today to reach my goal. I used All Year Cheer II for the inside stamped in Blackberry Bliss.  I colored my white ribbon with SU Markers. I have 3 Father's Day cared to give out next month, this takes care of one. Hope you like it.
