Life's Good

Hi everyone and happy Sunday :)

Today is my birthday ... my 39th .... for the 4th time now (shhh.. don't tell someone else ;-) ) and I had a little bit time left over and created this card for the current 'CAS' challenge at The Outlawz (this time it's a receipe challenge)

The patterned paper is from an older series of Dream Street Papers called 'Baylee's Garden' .. and even though it's an old and retired collection, I still love it :)  Stamps are from Whiff of Joy (image and sentiment, both released last year in summer).The image is 'Willow with Coffee 2 Go' and is also available at Crafts and Me here

The image was colored with Tombow Dual Brush pens and Mondeluz watercolor pencils.
Then I cut the lady out and put her on some foam pads for dimension.

I also pierced the patterned paper on the left side (I just pierced on the huge flower's faux stitching.. can you see it? I hope so...) To dress it up a little I also used a button and some bakers twine I found in my stash

Hope you like my little card a bit :)
Sylvia
