The image has been coloured with Pro and Flexmarkers, it's just perfect for a first birthday, this card is for a friend's son, Ebyn, I can't believe he's a year old already. I fussy cut the image so I could raise it up on foam pads for dimension, the die cut oval and sentiment are raised up too.
The patterned papers are are from two different packs, one Papermania, the other DCWV, the plaid background I created with a lovely Embossalicious embossing folder. The sentiment is from Craftwork Cards and the letter stickers for the name are Papermania.
To embellish, I added grosgrain ribbon layered over satin ribbon, a large bow, and some buttons threaded with baker's twine.
