Inky Chicks - Challenge #2

Hello there!!

I'm super excited today..

I've been asked to make something as a Guest Designer for the Inky Chicks..

And of course I said.. YES!!!

Here's my card for today's challenge..

The theme is Happy Birthday Girl..

I posted a little sneak peek of this card on my Facebook Page yesterday..

Since I love masking I tried to make something more complicated this time..

I've masked three stamps:

Sitting Tilda With Butterfly from the Magnolia Once Upon a Time Collection 2013..

Tilda's Heart Flowers - Sweet Crazy Love Collection 2012..

Log - Halloween & Autumn Collection 2008..

These amazing DP's are from Maja Design - Vintage Spring Basics..
I've also used some kraft paper and Papermania textured papers..

There are lots of different flowers on this card..
The bigger ones are from Prima Marketing.. The rest is from Wild Orchid Crafts..
The image's cut out with Spellbinders Circles and Scalloped Circles..

The border on the left was made using a Magnolia Doohickey - Edwin Lace..
The Photo Corner is from QuicKutz..
The pearls are from KaiserCraft..

All the paper edges are distressed and machine sewn..
The lace is from my stash..
I just had to use a doily and some cheesecloth again..

The postmark stamp is from Kort & Godt..
The image is stamped with Archival Ink on 300g Langton aquarel paper and coloured with Distress Inks..
Here's the list of colours used for this one:
Vintage Photo
Tattered Rose
Walnut Stain
Antique Linen
Wild Honey
Scattered Straw
Victorian Velvet
Pumice Stone
Weathered Wood
Peeled Paint
Forest Moss
Black Soot
Milled Lavender
Dusty Concord

The dots around the image are made with Liquid Pearls..
I used Stickles to cover the butterfly's wings and the bow in her hair and Crackle Paint for the flowers..

There's a tag hidden saying Happy Birthday..
That's a Doohickey too.. I think that's the Bloomy Tag..

I made this card using a fantastic sketch from and old MDUC challenge.. 

I think it's Lori's sketch.. I love it!!

The sponsor for this fantastic Inky Chicks challenge is Cult Pens..
