DTGD Birthday Unicorn

Photo Details

Poster: mrslaird

We had a birthday party for a sweet little girl this weekend. Her favorite color is purple and she likes unicorns.
I stamped the stars first, embossed them twice (thank you MISTI!) and then sponged the living daylights out of this, partly because I kept dinging the edges with ink. I fussy cut the unicorn because I'm too cheap to buy the dies. Added some stella to the horn and hooves and we were good to go.
I once again combined the heck out of DTGD challenges.

this is so sweet, I bet she loved all of it. ( and I tend to find it faster to hand cut most things where there is a cut line to follow)

How sweet is this. Your background looks fabulous, I love your inking!!! I'm with you on the metal die shapes, I'd rather buy more stamps. Your fussy cutting looks great. Thanks so much for adding to the fun of my challenge.
