Have I got a couple of cute cards for you!

I wanted to make a card for Shane (if you look down a couple of posts, you will know who I am talking about). Here is the card I made for him.

I really like how this card turned out. I used Prismacolor Pencils and Odourless mineral spirits for the coloring. Also on the present, cake and flowers..I used my Sakura Stardust Clear pen (for a little added interest). I found some patterned paper from my stash -no idea where its from, if I had to guess - I would say its from Michaels - cause most of my pattered paper is from there. I used my Stampin' Up! marker to doodle beneath the patterned paper and my White Gel Pen from Stampin' Up! to make the dots on the side of the chickens. Cardstock is from Stampin' Up!

I have one more card to show you. This card is the same as the top card, except it is a congratulations card. I have a friend who just got a job as the Accountant at the Co-op in Canora, AND a brother who just passed his exams with the CNR, so he is going to be a Conductor!! Everyone needs a card!! And I love the new set I got from CTMH because it has some cute sayings.

I hope whomever gets this card, likes it! Oh, and Thanks to my Mom, cause I borrowed her Penny Black stamp, and I just love this image!! Mom, it will be interesting to see the cards you make with this stamp too!
