"B" Day remake

Happy Friday everyone

Well a day later then I promised, but here it is. Debbie's new birthday card.

The inspiration for this card came from Linda at http://lindaduke.typepad.com . She is doing a set of 12 cards that are all monochromatic and OH SO STUNNING, but then ALL HER CARDS ARE. Hop on over, you won't be disappointed I promise you.

That great stamp is called "Monique" and can be purchesed at http://www.rubbernecker.com/ , and the sister stamp is by www.paperinspirations.com and purchased from http://www.stampart.ca here in London Ontario. There is a phrase that goes down the backside of it that I put on the inside of the card along with a few words from me. Sorry, no picture of inside and it's sealed now. The scallop is my new MS punch, LOVE IT.
I water colored the image with the same blue in three different strengths to make the layered dress pop, then added the bling www.tayloredexpressions.com to every tip of the layers and to the tips of each scallop also.
Can't forget the stickles and a dash of shimmer paint.
The skin tone is so different IRL, don't know why it looks so orangy here. I used a new flesh tone water color pencil here.

Well I hope she likes it.


Thanks for stopping by and enjoy you weekend.
