For some reason when I saw this sketch I immediately envisioned replacing the circle with the cake image from Big Wish. I wanted some colorful DP - not sure I am in love with this color combo though, will have to try it again later with a different color palette. I never seem to have enough birthday cards so it will be good to build up my stash of them right?
The cake image was stamped and colored in with in-color markers and cut out. I looped just a little bit of razzleberry ribbon to the right of the cake. I liked the sound of "Wish Big" (which sounds like a verb to me# better than "Big Wish" #which sounds like a noun - I hope Julee isn't offeneded!# so I used a black marker to ink up "Wish" first and then "Big" separately.
Thank you for the cool sketch Julee #as well as the chance to win# and thank you to everyone who took the time to look at my card.
Happy Release Day! Happy Weekend!

So bright & fun! I agree, "wish big" sounds better than "big wish," I like how you changed it up. And that cake looks so great! I'll have to go check--did you win something good?
