Birthday
Good Morning. I was looking through some cards stored on my pc last night, and found this card I made for a cousin who is a Red Hat lady. The stamp was borrowed, so don't know the manufacturer. I think the hardest part of coloring this image, was trying to get a translucent effect on the shawl where it drapes over her arm. The diecut was done with Spellbinders, and the lacy trim was an MS punch that had been embossed with a C/B dots folder. I used Red Bazzill for the cardbase, and used a big Flourish stamp, versamark, clear embossing powder. I was rather pleased with the reds on the hat & glove and if you look closely, there's some purple in the flowers too! I don't think I've posted this previously. Enjoy. Have a wonderful day.
