More Birthday Wishes

 One of my special online girlfriends birthday was a few days ago and I'm sharing the card I made for her today.

 Her name is Pam also, so we both lovingly call each other, 'the other Pam' or 'my sister Pam'.   Our friendship was definitely a Godsequence as we began our online chatting in July of 2015.  I'm very blessed to have the friendship of this wonderful Christian lady.



 When I was searching for an image for Pam's card, I had no idea what I wanted to use.  Knowing how much she loves her vegetable and flower garden, I thought this Lotus Corner from Technique Junkies would make a nice card for her. 

I sized the image to about 3" wide and printed on Neenah 110# card stock.  I used my Copic markers for the coloring and the Gina Marie Designs Label 3 for the decorative edge.  Don't you just love the pink marble paper that I used for the matting! I should have added one of those stickers that says..."I used my good paper for you!" 

I secured both the matting and the completed image to the front of a standard A2 card base.  Then I slipped the card into my Misti and stamped the birthday sentiment with Versa Clair ink.  I added clear embossing powder and heat set the sentiment giving it a nice shine.  I randomly added the three enamel dots to complete my card's design.

Happy Birthday 'other Pam'!

    This is exquisite Pam - I am sure the 'other' Pam would have loved it! Your 'marble' frame is a beautiful use of the the fabulous paper - I thought it was a digi ribbon initially
    Blessings

    I've always liked marbled paper and yours is especially pretty. A beautifully designed card and personalized for your friend makes it special. Thanks for joining us at MMM, Johanna DT
