It's Birthday Time

Today I'm sharing these adorable digital images I recently purchased from Bugaboo Stamps.  I created Birthday cards and I do believe the lady in the bikini is my favorite!

I downloaded the digis from Bugaboo and uploaded to Cricut Design Space.  I then used the Cricut to print and cut the images.  I added color to the images with colored pencil and used mineral spirits to blend the color.

I used Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink in Salty Ocean to color the mat under the Beach Lady, used a polka dot patterned paper for the cake and ran 2 different pieces of cardstock through my Cuddlebug using 2 different embossing folders for the coffee cup.  I mounted everything on card bases that measures 4.5" x 5:5"; a standard A2 size card.

I'm pleased with how they turned out - they were a fun project.
