Celebrate Life!

Recently my friend Lynne celebrated a birthday and I'd like to share the card I made for her.  I selected the Bravest Lion from Angie Blom's Digital Designs and used a cloth 'Celebrate' tag along with a gold 'Life' embellishment.  

As much as Lynne loves to water color beautiful flowers, you may wonder why I would select this image. But if you know Lynne and her daily life even from the surface, you would agree this courageous lion is perfect for this very strong, brave and faithful Christian woman of God.

I used Copic markers for the coloring of this bold image and then die cut the image and the golden dotted pattern matting with Whimsy Stamps Notched Stitched Square die set.  I used a 5 3/4" square card base and added the coordinating green background mat, then secured the two layers.  Next I added the 'Celebrate' tag on the left and the 'Life' embellishment on the bottom right corner.  To complete the design, I tied a matching ribbon at the left fold and knotted it at the center.  

Thanks for stopping by to see what I've been working on today.  Stop in any time!
