I love Susie B's Gallery and my card is a CASE of Susie's card here: Thank You Forever Friends by Susie B at Splitcoaststampers which I made for my niece's 2nd birthday, and I have made a few changes to the original card, but kept the same layout as Susie. Pls take the time to look at Susie's Gallery - the way she uses embossing folders and colours with her Prismas and Gamsol is amazing!!
The teddy is from The Glitter Pot - http://www.theglitterpot.co.uk/scrip...dproduct=11086 and was coloured with Prismacolor pencils and Gamsol. The embossing was done with the CB and the 'With Love' ef set. You can't really see on the photo, but I went over the CB embossing very lightly with a little bit of pink and lemon using my Prismas and Gamsol - just a hint of colour.
The sentiment was stamped using Versacolor Orchid ink and embossed with clear ep and diecut with Nesties. I popped the sentiment up on 1mm mounts.
I glued a Kaiserscrapbook Light Pink flower gem to the bear's ear and a lemon crystal sticker to the flower centre. The ribbon was attached with a glue dot.
Lastly, because of my glitter-obsession, I added Kindyglitz clear sparkle to the balloon plus the centres of the flowers on the ef's and the sentiment.
Thanks for having a peek!
