I just went with the sketch this time and used the Mon Ami stamp set from CAS-ual Fridays. I stamped and die cut the flower and coloured it in with Copics.  Then I added some shading using Prisma pencils and blended it with some blending solution.  I added a strip of black card stock and stamped the sentiment just above.  I adhered the flower using some foam tape.

Rachelle Anne Miller Digital Stamps - Animal Balloons

Hello and happy Monday!
I'm sharing a card today over on the Rachelle Anne Miller Digital Stamps Facebook Group showcasing the cute "Animal Balloons" digi. You can find lots of inspiration over at the Facebook page so be sure to pop over and check it out.

I am also entering my card into the Crafty Calendar Challenge where the August theme is anything goes.

I started by printing the image out on some Neenah Solar White card stock and die cut it using a stitched rectangle die.
Then I coloured it in with my Ohuhu alcohol markers and Prisma pencils.  I stamped the sentiment and stars from a Catherine Pooler stamp set and adhered the panel to a top folding card base. 
I love to add numbers to the balloons on my birthday cards and I'll wait to see who I give this to before adding them.
This card would also look great without any additional sentiments in my opinion!

I hope you like my card today and thanks for visiting.
