My nephew turns 3 in a few months and I always struggle with cards for that age. I searched the gallery and found several Billy cards that I thought might work (and I just happened to have an uninked Billy Plate 1 set sitting in my drawer!). I found this card at the Pink Cat Studio Billy gallery: http://pinkcatstudio.com/SampleCards...tieCotton1.jpg. Katie Cotton's was so perfect, I didn't change a whole lot. This card IS as bright as it looks . . . but isn't that what a 3 y/o will be drawn to?
I used my new Slice (which I am not entirely in love with) to cut out the star and and *3*). I used SU markers to color Billy and a copic skin color for his face. I outlined the whole image with a clear spica glitter pen to add just a little shimmer. The red panel is embossed with a cuttlebug circles folder. I used a white gel pen for the *stitching* around the star. The star is popped up on dimensionals.
The little Super Dog in the scallop circle is also on the inside bottom right of the card.
I plan to print a sentiment on white cs with my computer for the inside; something along the lines of Hope your 3rd birthday is as SUPER as you are!
