I picked a cute hedgehog with a cake from Birthday BFF set (30-587) by Penny Black.

I stamped the hedgehog in Versafine black ink on some watercolor paper and watercolored it using Karin brush markers. I stamped the image on the bottom half of the panel to get the space for the heart garlands which were cut using the Heart Border die (51-592).

I ink blended the upper half of the panel in pink, yellow and blue very lightly and matted the colored panel with a pink cardstock so that the die cut hearts of the garlands look pink. I splattered white ink on the pink panel before I foam mounted the colored panel on it. I then mounted them on a gray cardbase using foam tape.

The sentiment from the same stamp set was heat embossed on vellum in silver. I finished off the card with some clear sequins and two pink rhinestones on the sentiment banner.

Now it’s your turn! I think the Topping is the easiest one for a birthday card 🙂 ! please hop over to the Seize the Birthday blog for more inspiration from my team mates and our guest Jenny Martin from My Paper Epiphany !

Thank you so much for looking!

Have a great one!
