I've used a Gorjuss stamp that I've I have in my collection for quite some time for my DT card, coloured, of course, with Promarkers, she's from a winter collection, but not necessarily Christmassy, making her perfect for a winter birthday card.
The frame for the image was made with a Spellbinders Floral Ovals die, using blue satin board, and the horizontal kraft border was decorated with a starry Tonic border punch to pick out the stars on her dress. I hand cut a tag from kraft card, stamped a birthday sentiment on with a Personal Impressions stamps, set an eyelet, tied on some baker's twine, then tucked it in behind the topper.
To embellish, I used Sue Wilson Faux Quilled Flower dies to create flowers from white glitter card and leaves from kraft card, added some ribbon and a bow, and finished with some coloured pearls.
Oldie But a Goodie - 1 Image, 2 Papers, 3 Finishing Touches (ribbon, flowers, pearls) - All older stash used for this card apart from flower dies
