Here's hoping that 2011 is a great one. I thought I would celebrate its arrival with this card. I made it with a digital freebie from Tiddly Inks. So cute!!! I printed the baby in the hat onto Georgia Pacific cardstock and colored with Copic markers. I then proceeded to cut the image out with Cutter-bee scissors.
Patterned paper from Hot Off the Press provide the background panel along with black cardstock. I did a little paper piercing and added a pre-cut black scalloped border from Bazzill along the side. The sentiment is from a Studio G $1 stamp, and the year was handwritten by me with a white gel pen. A little background "noise" or "clutter" was provided with a couple of stamps from Stamps by Judith, stamped randomly with Distress Ink Fire Brick red dye ink and Hero Shadow Ink Silver. A little curly party ribbon completes the card.
Thank you so much for looking. Wishing you all a very Happy New Year.
