Happy birthday, Jacqui!

It is my sister Jacqui's birthday tomorrow, and I've already made her one card, but that's for my parents to give to her!  I was stumped for ideas this morning, so I went to my notebook where I keep a list of current challenges in blogland that I hope to find time to participate in.  I chose 2 today - Freshly Made Sketches #113, and Keep It Simple #27 Color Combo.

 I used a Hero Arts Happy Birthday from "Essential Messages", Lawn Fawn "Quinn's ABC" stamps and dies, and the flower and leaves are from a discontinued Stampin' Up set.
The Copics I used are B00, B05, BG10, BG18, R32, RV09 and BV17.  I finished with a touch of clear  Wink of Stella.

    1. Hi - for this card, I just used a pre-cut card base, which is White Knight 280gsm - it works really well with alcohol markers. The letters are cut from PaperTrey Ink white cardstock, which is also fabulous with alcohol markers.
