Cute Bear Birthday Card Card

For this card I used a super cute digi stamp from Stampfairy, I coloured it using Promarkers (Satin, Caramel, Pale Pink & Pastel Yellow) I cut and layered the various sections of printable patterned paper and edged all of them using Brilliance Pearlescent Inks in Orchid and Purple to give them a lovely shimmery finish. I used the centre die from Nellie Snellen's Circle Frames set to cut out the Happy Birthday sentiment then I stamped the 18 using Versamark and embossed in Silver. I added some embroidery thread and a button just to have a bit of a change from ribbon, then just added a couple of pearls here and there to finish off. I love this bear he's soooooo cute :o)
